Rising Moon

[Verse] There's a tavern in Savannah They call it the Rising Moon Known to wreck lives of folks who wander And folks who leave too soon [Verse 2] My mama laid the table She cooked our bread and beans My daddy was a wanderin' rover Down in Savannah scenes [Chorus] Oh Rising Moon that drifts tonight You pull lost souls astray And many wander in your light To lose their path each day [Bridge] So parents tell your daughters And sons who chase the light Don't venture near that glow so warm In the moon of the night [Verse 4] With one foot here in Georgia The other to distant skies I'm headed back to that glowin' orb That caused my mournful sighs [Chorus] Oh Rising Moon that drifts tonight You pull lost souls astray And many wander in your light To lose their path each day
