Lyric Don t Turn Out the Light

(Bob McDill)

A scarecrow and yellow moon and road house on the edge of town
Hear that midnight rooster crow well I 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 I m ridin home in John s old car
Got my head out in the wind here I am drunk up again
But honey don t turn out the light
Cause I think I m in the mood for love tonight.

--- Instrumental ---

Me and John in a pickup truck a bottle of gin and a paper cup
Runnin wild and livin hard and 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.

The moon is high the sun is down honey came out in her old night gown
On a porch at a quarter o 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...
