MIDNIGHT MOONLIGHT
(Tish Hinojosa)


Tish Hinojosa - 1987


If ever you feel lonesome
And you're down in San Antone
Beg, steal or borrow two nickels or a dime
Call me on the phone

I'll meet you at Alamo Mission
We can say our prayers
And the Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mother will hear us
As we hear them

In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight
In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight

If ever you feel sorrow
For the deeds you have done
With no hope for tomorrow
In the setting of the Sun

And the wind, it is howlin'
For the things that might have been
Then your lasting morning sunrise
Will be the brightest here they've ever seen

In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight
In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight

(Instrumental Break)

If ever you feel lonesome
And you're down in San Antone
Beg, steal or borrow two nickels or a dime
Call me on the phone

I'll meet you at Alamo Mission
We can say our prayers
And the Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mother will hear us
As we hear them

In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight
In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight

In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight
In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight

In the moonlight, in the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight
