(Autry Inman)
Dolly Porton & Porter Wagoner

I went strolling in the evening underneath the harvest moon
I was thinking about you
Then we met out in the moonlight the stars were shining in your eyes
But another was there too.

I don't believe you've met my baby he looked at me he looked at you
You wondered who I was talking to
I shook the hand of you stranger but I was shaking more inside
I was still wondering who
His arm was resting on my shoulder he smiled at you he smiled at me
His eyes were filled with victory.

He said my sister wants to marry you then it was oh so plain to see
I knew that you would marry me
I don't believe you've met my baby hmm hmm
I knew that you would marry me...
