Lyrics

Moonlight, shining on the back of my hand
Cat fight, rattlin' the garbage can
Looks like, somethin' chased you up a tree
Same thing, same thing happened to me

Wild wind, blowing down the neck of my shirt
Old men, sittin' on a bench in the dirt
Seems like, another ship has gone out to sea
Same thing, same thing happened to me

Shoe shine, someone's got to tell ya the news
A fine line, separates a boy from the blues
Looks like, you could use some company
Same thing, same thing happened to me

Runnin', runnin' just as fast as I can
Someone, someone take a hold of my hand
Looks like, somethin' chased you up a tree
Same thing, same thing happened to me
Same thing, same thing happened to me
