Saturday night and the moon is out
Just shinin' over top of the pines
I'm headin' on down to my baby's house
Gonna take her on a midnight ride
Now I'm on these backroads winding down to Kickapoo 
Creek
Dancin' and singin' to some good ol' boys like me
Baby, there's a shooting star,
That was for me and you.
So, hold me tight, make that wish, and pray that it 
comes true.
I ain't sure of much,
But this I know -
I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart 
of gold.
I brought along a little courage and coleman cooler 
Just to help me out
My hands are shaking like canebrake rattler,
Nothing's gonna save me now
Might as well jump in head first; lay it all on the 
line
What am I worrying about never gonna be a more perfect 
time
Cause baby, there's a shooting star,
That was for me and you.
So, hold me tight, and make that wish, and pray that it 
comes true.
I ain't sure of much,
But this I know...
I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart 
of gold.
Well I didn't have money for a broadway show but the 
crickets are singing to the radio.
And we got tickets, on the very front porchhhhhh.
baby, there's a shooting star,
