Charlie Musselwhite - Shootin' For The Moon lyrics

rate me

Waitin' there by the side of the River

Waitin' there but she did not show

Wringin' his hands & shakin' his head

Checkin' his watch, it's time to go

(chorus)

They say the sky is the limit

Perfected in the mirror of the mightly Mississippi

Shootin' for the moon

Crash landed in the crescent city

I hear the truth, it's all you can see

There is a trick in the thick of it all

The ghost in the fog is a thin line

Between first light & last call

(chorus)

Waitin' there by the side of the River

Ready to cross to the other shore

Waitin' there by the side of the River

It never looked so wide before

(chorus 2x)
