Well, there's a half moon tonight,
Half moon tonight.
Half moon tonight in Tennessee.
And as I watch it glow, I come to know,
That moon's a whole lot like me.
Oh, that half moon tonight,
Half moon shining in the sky.
Like a soul that's half full, and gravity pulls,
Us both close to the light.
I'm gonna shine, shine, shine.
No matter how dark it may be.
I'm gonna shine, shine, all through the night.
Like that half moon of Tennessee.
And even the wind, stops to listen in,
To hear the songs it'll bring.
Oh, that half moon, it says,
Half moon, it says.
Half moon, oh, it does say.
"There ain't nothing to fear, tomorrow is near,
With it brings a new day.”
That half moon of Tennessee.
