[C] The moon is full and my heart is why
[G] I love to dance oh [C] me oh my
gonna have more fun than a tree in a coon
[G] tonight's the dance of the [C] Cajun Moon
Chorus
[F] Cajun [C] Moon [G] nugget of [C] gold
[F] river of [C] light on the [G] bayou
[F] you're just like [C] rain
[G] to a love in [Am] bloom so
[F] shine on [C] me [G] oh [G] Cajun [C] 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
Chorus
Guitar, a squeeze box, a fiddle, a bow
little band a-playin' every song they know
old woman sittin' there and yellin' for more
my heart is willin', but my feet - they're so sore!
Chorus
Once more we're waltzin' to Jolie Blond
I lean in closer and Sheri responds
her mama's smilin' as we slip from the room
to sit and stare at the Cajun Moon
