Robert Earl Keen - Don't turn out the light lyrics

rate me

Scarecrow and a yellow moon

And a roadhouse on the edge of town.

Hear that midnight rooster crow

Well I'll have one more before I go

But Honey, don't turn out the light

Cause I think I'm in the mood for love tonight

The night is cool beneath the stars

Ridin' home in John's old car

Got my head out in the wind

Here I am drunked up again

But Honey, don't turn out the light

Cause I think I'm in the mood for love tonight

Me and John in a pickup truck

Bottle of gin and a paper cup

Runnin' wild and livin' hard

I passed out in our front yard

But Honey, don't turn out the light

Cause I think I'm in the mood for love tonight

INSTRUMENTAL

The moon is high, the sun is down

Honey came out in her night gown

On the porch at a quarter to three

Talkin' to the deputy sheriff and me

But Honey, don't turn out the light

Cause I think I'm in the mood for love tonight

I said Honey, don't turn out the light

Cause I think I'm in the mood for love tonight

I said Honey, don't turn out the light

Cause I think I'm in the mood for love tonight
