Oh, yellow moon, yellow moon
Why you keep peeping in my window?
Didn't you know something
Do you know something that I don't know?
Did you see my baby
Walking down that railroad track?
You couldn't tell me
Oh, if the girls ever coming back
Is she hid out with another
Or is she trying to get back home?
Is she wrapped up in some other's arms?
Or is the girl somewhere all alone?
Can you see if she is missing me
Or is she having a real good time?
Has she forgotten all about me
Or is the girl still mine all mine?
With your eye so big and shiney
You can see the whole damn land
Yellow moon, can you tell me
If the girl's with another man, man?
Oh, yellow moon, yellow moon, yellow moon
Have you seen that creole woman
You couldn't tell me
Now ain't you a friend of mine
With your eye so big and shiney
You can see the whole damn land
Yellow moon, can you tell me
If the girl's with another man, man?
Oh, yellow moon, yellow man, yellow moon
Have you seen that creole woman
You couldn't tell me
Now ain't you a friend of mine
Yellow moon
