When I was a baby, Just a baby boy I never really got lonely, I never had to play with no toys Cause any time that I'm feeling blue. I just look up and see Big old shiny moon Was always looking down on me Shiny moon, shiny moon And in my teenage years All my time was spent Didn't have no time for girls, Turned my back on my friends Cause every night when that sun goes down And I'm too wired to sleep. Shiny moon shine on down. She seduces me Shiny moon, shiny moon Shiny moon gonna help me carry my load Shiny moon gonna help me carry my load Shiny moon gonna help me when l'm feeling low Shiny moon gonna help me carry my load Shiny moon, shiny moon Now I'm a little bit older, I'm beginning to see Shiny moon's shined so bright she's been blinding me Cause every night, ah, keep drowning in its rays yeah Shiny moon never shined so bright as what it did these days Shiny moon, shiny moon. Shiny moon gonna help me carry my load Shiny moon gonna help me carry my load Shiny moon gonna help me when l'm feeling low Shiny moon gonna help me carry my load Shiny moon, shiny moon.
