I was shakin in my shoes
the day I heard the news
said the deal has been done
c#min c#min
the moon just bought out the sun
I'd heard of the deal
c#min
but never thought it was real
said if the sun don't shine
c#min G# c#min
if you wanna live there ain't no use in tryin
Now the preachers were a prayin
c#min
and the old farmers kept sayin
if tomorrow the sun don't rise
c#min G# c#min
I'm afraid I won't open my eyes
so the people gathered round
c#min
and nobody made a sound
said if the rooster refuses to crow
c#min G# c#min
the fields will cease to grow
there eyes stared to the sky
c#min
and noone could cry
said there is no more doubt
c#min G# c#min
as they watched the sun slowly burn out
now the drunkards loosened a buckle
c#min
and the wise men began to chuckle
said if the sun don't come back soon
c#min G# c#min
we'll never see the moon
now the moon realized his mistake
c#min
and grew red in the face
said my lesson has been learned
c#min G# c#min
when you don't think you're bound to get burned
