The moon is full and my heart is high
I love to dance oh me oh my
Gonna have more fun than a tree in a coon
Tonight's the dance of the Cajun Moon

Pick ups and wagons 'round the river road shack
Bonfires draw in a crowd out back
Step through the door and I see my Sheri
That's when I see her mamas eyes on me

Cajun Moon nugget of gold
River of light on the bayou
You're just like rain to a love in bloom so
Shine on me oh Cajun Moon

Guitar a squeeze box a fiddle a bow
Little band a-playing every song they know
Old woman sitting there and yelling for more
My heart is willing but my feet they're so sore

Once more we're waltzing to Jolie Blond
I lean in closer and Sheri responds
Her mama's smiling as we slip from the room
To sit and stare at the Cajun Moon
