The Moon Struck One |
Julie and little John Tyler lived in the house next door |
We would be the great triangle and to this we swore |
Julie was my sweetheart, little John was my cohort |
And all the wild horses in the world couldn’t keep us apart |
Once we went for a swim in the noonday sun |
And promised to return before the moon struck one |
Julie came running through the pasture, she was screaming at the sky |
She fell down to her knees and the tears did fly |
Little John was stung by a snake over by the lake |
And it looked like he s really, really hurt, he was lying in the dirt |
Who, we went it as fast as we could run |
But we lost little John as the moon struck one |
I was vacant, Julie was a bird with a broken wing |
We were always afraid of what tomorrow might bring |
We’ll drive down to Durango--up and leave this place |
And maybe forget the triangle with a change of pace |
The car broke down when we had just begun |
And we walked back to the house while the moon struck one |
