Sneaky Moon
Tanya Tucker · Other Songs - Tanya Tucker
I can hear the music comin' over the hill
How am I supposed to stay in bed
With a crazy little love song in my head
Ooh, sneaky moon, ooh, sneaky moon
June bug buzzin' on the front porch light
Heartbreak's waitin' for me outside
I swore, I wouldn't open that door
Here I am in those arms once more
Ooh, sneaky moon, ooh, sneaky moon
Safe and sound at home asleep
Is where I ought to be
Everywhere I go it just keeps
Creepin' up on me
Romeo waited for the sun to set
Before he serenaded Juliet
Eve met the devil on a Saturday night
But who tricked her into takin' that bite
Ooh, sneaky moon, ooh, sneaky moon
Ooh, sneaky moon, ooh, sneaky moon
Ahh sneaky moon
