Backstory:

I wrote the lyric a few years ago and always thought that it had potential. Recently working with Alan Mueller on another song, he had written some music that didn't necessarily fit what we were actually working on. The more I heard the music, I started thinking that it would fit for Southern Moonshine. I was right, as the music was indeed a perfect fit for Southern Moonshine. A song about traveling, playing gigs or maybe it would fit for anyone whose job takes them away from loved ones. I think it has the sound of a Marshall Tucker band song, and I'm happy with that!

"There’s a full moon in the sky, I’m going home my oh my                                                                                                    Teary eyes love the glow, feel the warmth in my soul                                                                                                                 got a good woman who waits for me, the road in the moonlight is all I see
take me to my family place                                                                                                                               got no time to waste, Southern Moonshine set me free"

V 1                                                                                                                                                            
I’m a working man whose job is done, working hard I’m on the run
My only light is by the Full moon, I’m so glad that I’ll be home soon 
Load em up, let’s hit the road                                                                                                                              I can’t wait a minute more, when it was quittin’ time I hit the door                                                                    Lead me on to my hometown, going south is where I’m bound

V 2                                                                                                                                                                                    My life spent working a bit too hard, it takes me away a bit too far
Moon up high on a lonely road, I’m going home that’s all I know
A weary mind, with scattered thoughts                                                                                                                           Counted down the days gone by, now I’m leaving this place behind                                                                             This old moon he knows the way, my dreams of home I will obey

Chorus                                                                                                                                                                                There’s a full moon in the sky, I’m going home my oh my                                                                                                           Teary eyes love the glow, feel the warmth in my soul                                                                                                               got a good woman who waits for me, the road in the moonlight is all I see
take me to my family place                                                                                                                               Got no time to waste, Southern Moonshine set me free

Bridge                                                                                                                                                                              I talk to myself out loud, away from her I feel so down                                                                                                         I cry to the moon like a friend, don’t let me down                                                                                                   I can’t stop, I know that porch light is on
When I see that glimmer, I know that I’m finally be home     

Chorus                                                                                                                                                                                There’s a full moon in the sky, I’m going home my oh my                                                                                                           Teary eyes love the glow, feel the warmth in my soul                                                                                                               got a good woman who waits for me, the road in the moonlight is all I see
