lazy yellow moon comin up tonight
shinin through the trees
cricket's are singing
and lightning bugs are floatin on the breeze

baby get ready
cross the field
where the creek turns back
by the old stump road
i'm gonna take you to a special place
that no body knows
baby get ready

oooh oooh
you and me goin fishin in the dark
lyin on our backs
and countin the stars
where the cool grass grows

down by the river in the full moonlight
we'll be fallin in love
in the middle of the night
just movin slow

stayin the whole night through
feels so good to be
with you

spring is almost over
and the summers come
and the days are gettin long
waited all winter for the time to be right
just to take you along

baby get ready
it don't matter if we sit forever
and the fish don't bite
jump in the river and cool ourselves
from the heat of the night
baby get ready

oooh oooh
you and me goin fishin in the dark
lyin on our backs
and countin the stars
where the cool grass grows

down by the river in the full moonlight
we'll be fallin in love
in the middle of the night
just movin slow

stayin the whole night through
feels so good to be
with

you and me goin fishin the dark
(you and me goin fishin in the dark)
lyin on our backs
and countin the stars
where the cool grass grows

down by the river in the full moonlight
(down by the river in the full moonlight)
we'll be fallin in love
(we'll be fallin in love)
in the middle of the night
just movin slow

you and me goin fishin in the dark
(you and me goin fishin in the dark)
lyin on our backs
and countin the stars
where the cool grass grows

down by the river in the full moonlight
(down by the river in the full moonlight)
we'll be fallin in love
(we'll be fallin in love)
in the middle of the night
