The moon is shining, baby
And all I can think of is you
And I'm leaving Chayenne on my own beat up battered and bruised
And I'm heading home for your loving
Yes you know it's true
Cause to be without my cowgirl
Is what makes this cowboy blue

Well I've been on the road now
So long without your touch
My body is weak now baby
And only you got the right stuff
Make your cowboy feel like a brand new man
That's right, baby
You got your spurs in my skin

The moon is shining, baby
And all I can do is think of you
And I'm leaving tired and I'm all beat up battered and bruised
And I'm heading home for your loving
Yes you know it's true

Cause to be without my cowgirl
Is what makes this cowboy blue
