Lucky Mud: Music

Underneath the Florida Moon

I had a horse when I was a girl, and he was my best friend. After I wrote this, I started thinking of all those great Western movies where the horse came back to save the cowboy. That was my horse, Cocoa.
We'll go out dancin' in the moonlight
Underneath the stars
Swayin' and a swingin'
In the headlights of the cars
It's another night together
Alone just you and me
We're dancin' in the moonlight
Waltzin' tree to tree
(chorus) The crickets and the tree frogs
Singin' out a tune
Underneath the Florida Moon

The smell of Jasmine in the air
You'll kick off your shoes
Dancin' in the moonlight
What have we got to lose
We're swingin' and a swayin'
There's no music here
Just the sounds of the night time
Singin' in our ear
(chorus)

Got a natural sense of rythm
That's all you've got to have
When you're dancin' in the moonlight
With the one you love
The owl's a hoota' hootin'
The gator gives a groan
That's all you really need
To make a night time song
(chorus)
