Well I don't even know I'm livin', baby
Yes, until you tell me so
Why did you have to leave me, baby
Before I was ready to let you go
And the moon comes up too early
Much too early in the day
And the moon, lord, comes up too early
And the moon, makes me pay
And the moon, makes me pay
Well, I don't know, maybe I was a little (bit too) hard on you, baby
You know it just didn't make any sense
Whoa, I just felt like a customer
Gettin' stuck with the bill again
And the moon comes up too early
Much too early in the day
And the moon, lord, comes up too early (early)
And the moon, makes me pay
And the moon, makes me pay
Well, go on and have your fun baby
I'm not gonna stop you from your play
Well man was born to have fun, baby
But a man also pays
And the moon comes up too early
Much too early in the day
And the moon, lord, comes up too early (early)
And the moon, makes me pay
And the moon, makes me pay
Well I think about you at night time, baby
You know the night time is no joke
Lord I wish I could make my peace with my baby, yeah
Yes, but he's nowhere in this world
And the moon, lord, comes up too early
Much too early in the day
And the moon, lord, comes up too early (early)
And the moon, makes me pay
And the moon, makes me pay
