Dirt road in the twilght, woods so cool and dark
Up ahead pale neon, somewhere a dog barks
Honky tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me

Breaking up the pool balls, chalking up the cues
Juke box pumping softly, lazy summer blues
Honky tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me

Through the blue smoky haze, all through the haze
All the day's trouble seem to melt away
My heart's on a roll, I'm easy in my soul
There's no hurry, no worry, things are going my way

My arms around my baby, shuffling on the floor
Cigarettes and sawdust, squeaky old screen door
Honk tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me

Through the blue smoky haze, all through the haze
All the day's trouble seem to melt away
My heart's on a roll, I'm easy in my soul
There's no hurry, no worry, things are going my way

Outside the dark is falling, stars are twinkling bright
An old hoot owl is calling, everything's all right
Honky tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me
Honky tonk moon, keeps shining on my baby and me
