Lyrics

Lazy yellow moon comin' up tonight
Shinin' through the trees
Crickets are sangin' and the lightnin' bugs are floatin' in the breeze
Baby get ready..

Across the field where the creek turns back by the ole stump road
I'm gonna take you to a special place that nobody knows
Baby get ready...ooooooooooo

You and me going fishin' in the dark
Lyin' on our backs and countin' the stars
Where the cool grass grows
Down by the river in the full moon light
We'll be fallin' in love in the middle of the night
Just movin' slow..

Stayin' the whole night thru, feels so good to be with you..

Spring is almost over and the summer's come
And the days are gettin' long
Waited all winter for the time to be right, just to take you along
Baby get ready..

And it don't matter if we sit forever and the fish don't bite
Jump in the river and cool ourselves from the heat of the night
Baby get ready.....ooooooooooo

Repeat the chorus (x3)

You and me going fishin in the dark
