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 |
