Thinkin'

I know I'm not a young man
-and that time is passing by
And soon I'll go to heaven
-or maybe not and fry
But there's one thing that I'm thinkin'
-and I'd really like to say
That the moon is gonna fall down
-on us all one of these days

I'm thinkin' 'bout that moon
-that God put up in the air
I'm thinkin' 'bout that moon
-and I hope it stays up there

There's nothing holds it up there
-it's really plain to see
And if it doesn't fall
-it may get stuck up in a tree
But if it doesn't fall
-I think it's really for the best
That it keeps on rising in the east
-and goes on setting in the west

I'm thinkin' 'bout that moon
-that God put up in the air
I'm thinkin' 'bout that moon
-and I hope it stays up there
Oh the moon is just a chunk of rock
-if what they say is true
Floating in the sky
-way above the blue
But if something would happen
-to that light up in the sky
It would really make me sad
-and I think I'd start to cry

I'm thinkin' 'bout that moon
-that God put up in the air
I'm thinkin' 'bout that moon
-and I hope it stays up there.
