The Moon Shines

(album: Calicountry - 2014)

Back in the woods where the law don't grow
Your 4 wheel drive a couple miles or so
And the sun stops shining and the stars come out
One way in and no way out

And then you hear "Yee-haws" and a shotgun blast
You know that you made it there at last
Where the outlaw women can dance all night
And the liquor hit you quicker but feels just right

And the blood will flow but you'll have a good time
And the fires are always lit
And the moon shines

(What you say boy?)

Coyotes get to run and when them dogs start to bark
In California on the plate on every Chevy that is parked
Way back in the hills like that old wooden shack
Beauty queen, silhouette, [?] smoke stack
Bullfrog still sipping from that Mason by the still
Got that doolie with a mattress back away up on the hill
Bonfire got your jacket smelling like your last meal
Got that hog still spinning like I spin my four wheels
They say Cali ain't country but I'll let you know the deal
I know some Oakdale boys that'll leave you in the field
Reaching back to the rack [?] and grab the steel
I'm a Cali boy [?] boy I think you know the deal

And the blood will flow but you'll have a good time
And the fires are always lit
And the moon shines

Two kegts of dust and now they floating in the mud
The firewater's flowing, now there's bound to be some blood
Ride 17 miles past the city limit son
Where the bonfire's lit and the moon always shines
We raise hell, now less country to us
I said we raise hell, now less country to us
And our outlaw women like to drink all night
They ain't afraid of you and no they ain't afraid to fight
You can see the smoke clouds up and down cotton road
Turn that Bocephus loud till the sheriff makes us go
Hit the ditch bank, gravel pit, whipping back roads
Smoking funny cigarettes with some David Allan Coe

And the blood will flow but you'll have a good time
And the fires are always lit
And the moon shines
