Lyrics

Oh sweet jannie
Yeah, won't you come out tonight?
Oh sweet jannie
Girl, won't you come out tonight?
I wanna take you walkin'
Way out in the clear moonlight

Oh baby, baby
Come on take me by my hand
Oh baby
Come on take me by my hand
I don't wanna stop walkin'
'Til we get up to the preacher man, hey

I've been in love with you, baby
Ever since you were back in sunday school
I've been in love with you, baby
Ever since you was back in sunday school
And I knew right there and then
I just wanna to be your fool

Oh sweet jannie
Baby, won't you come out tonight? alright
I said, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Come out tonight
I wanna take you walkin'
Way out on a clear moonlight

One more time

Hey-hey-yeah, baby, baby
Baby, baby, alright

Baby, baby
Baby, come on out tonight

Yeah, we're gonna keep on
Walkin' way up in a clear moonlight

Oh baby, baby
Come on shuffle out tonight

Oh-oh, baby, baby, baby, baby
Come on shuffle out tonight

Gonna keep on shufflin'
