-- OR -- 
The moon is full and my heart is high
I love to dance oh me oh my
Gonna have more fun than a tree and a coon
Tonight's the dance of the Cajun moon
Pickups and wagons 'round the railroad shack
Bonfires are drawn in a crowd out back
Step through the door and I see my Sherry
That's when I feel her mama's eyes on me
Cajun moon ... nugget of gold ... river of light on the bayou
You're just like rain ... to a love in bloom, so
Shine on me oh Cajun moon
Guitar, a squeeze box, a fiddle and bow
Little band a-playin' every song they know
Ol' woman sittin' there and yellin' for more
My heart is willin' but my feet, they're so sore!
Cajun moon ... nugget of gold ... river of light on the bayou
You're just like rain ... to a love in bloom, so
Shine on me oh Cajun moon
BREAK
Once more we're waltzin' to Jody Long
I lean in closer and Sherry responds
Her mama's smilin' as we slip from the room
To sit and stare at the Cajun moon
Cajun moon ... nugget of gold ... river of light on the bayou
You're just like rain ... to a love in bloom, so
Shine on me oh Cajun moon
Cajun moon ... nugget of gold ... river of light on the bayou
You're just like rain ... to a love in bloom, so
Shine on me oh Cajun moon
