Lyrics

[Chorus]
Pale, pale moon rising
Over the pines, come
Lawd away until the
Sun does rise
Leave the day
By the door, I don't
Care if sun don't shine once more
[Refrain]
That's what I said!
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna spend my money on somethin'
Sweet and strong
Gonna move my body through the whole night long
Gonna sweat the way I been longin' to
Nobody gon' tell me nuttin'
That's what I'm gonna do
[Refrain]
That's what I said!
That's what I said!
[Verse 2]
I wanna sing
Like I hear the crickets do
I wanna hoo
Like owls do
I wanna howl
To the moon
[Verse 3]
Scream!
Scream like wild cats do
[Verse 4]
I wanna be
I wanna naturally free
[Refrain]
That's what I'm gon' do
[Bridge]
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale
Pale, pale moon
[Chorus]
Pale, pale moon rising
Over the pines, come
Lawd away until the
Sun does rise
Oh, come on
Leave the day
By the door, I don't
Tell it
Care if sun don't shine once more
[Refrain]
That's what I said
[Verse 5]
Don't let it shine
Don't let it shine
Don't let it shine
Don't let it shine
Don't let it shine, shine, shine once more
[Verse 6]
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale moon
[Verse 7]
I wanna sing
Like I hear the crickets do
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale moon
I wanna hoo
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale moon
I wanna howl
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale moon
I wanna scream
[Verse 8]
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale moon
Pale, pale moon
[Refrain]
Ain't no love in the heat of the sun
Keep on working to the dollars won
From the crow of the rooster to the morning dove
Sing my song when the day is done
[Refrain]
Ain't no love in the heat of the sun
Keep on working to the dollars won
From the crow of the rooster to the morning dove
Sing my song when the day is done
[Refrain]
Ain't no love in the heat of the sun
Keep on working to the dollars won
From the crow of the rooster to the morning dove
Sing my song when the day is done
[Refrain]
Ain't no love in the heat of the sun
Keep on working to the dollars won
From the crow of the rooster to the morning dove
Sing my song when the day is done
