Ozark Moon

Ozark moon, I’m trusting in your tender light
To carry back a message to the Ozark hills tonight
Just tell them that I love them, as you shed your silvery light
Tell them how I’m longing to be in the hills tonight
Where the whipporwill is calling and the rippling waters flow
Ozark moon, still shining, as it did so long ago
Many were the happy hours I spent in happy dreams
Down in the Ozark mountains beneath your silverly beams
There’s a little cabin in the heart of the Ozark hills
Where someone is waiting, where someone loves me still
Oh won’t you take this message as you roll along your way?
Tell them that I’m lonely and I’m coming back someday
Where the whipporwill is calling and the rippling waters flow
Ozark moon still shining, as it did so long ago
Many were the happy hours I spent in happy dreams
Down in the Ozark mountains beneath your silvery beams
Down in the Ozark mountains beneath your silverly beams
