Blue Catawba Moon

My baby said she's leavin',
goin' back to Cleveland,
Said she won't be comin' back soon,
I should be sleepin',
But I lie here weepin'
Underneath this blue Catawba moon

One time she told me
some day I'd be lonely
singin this two time and two
I didn't believe her
oh I did I decieve her
Underneath this blue Catawba moon

There're no boats in the harbour tonight
there's no breeze in the bar
band don't sure ain't playing no more
even the light has dark

I needn't her affections
seein' her reflections
looking down into this lonely lagoon
I'm a lonely papa
since she left me on Catawba
Underneath this blue Catawba moon

Instrumental

There're no boats in the harbour tonight
there's no breeze in the bar
band don't sure ain't playing no more
even the light has dark

I needn't her affections
seein' her reflections
looking down into this lonely lagoon
I'm a lonely papa
since she left me on Catawba
Underneath this blue Catawba moon

since my mama left Catawba
I'm a blue Cantawba papa
Underneath.... this blue... Catawba moon ...oh yeah!
