There's a full moon risin'
Comin' up behind them cypress trees
Betty Jo ain't wearin' nothin' 'round her body
But a cool night breeze
Her daddy warned me
Boy, don't come round here no more
But here I am knockin'
On sweet Betty's door
Louisiana moon,
Done cast it's spell on me (Yeah....)
Louisiana moon,
Makes a man do crazy things
We slipped off to a place
In the swamp where nobody goes
Down by the water
Where the snakes and the alligator's play
Nobody follows
'Cause there's evil in there
Uh, I ain't scared of nothin'
When I'm holdin' Betty tight
Louisiana moon,
Done cast it's spell on me (Yeah..)
Louisiana moon,
Makes a man do crazy things
I can't stay away
'Cause I love the thrill
If the gator's don't get me
Her daddy will...
Louisiana moon,
Done cast it's spell on me (Yeah, oh yeah yeah)
Louisiana moon,
Makes a man do crazy things (Yeah)
Louisiana moon,
Done cast it's spell on me (Yeah....)
Louisiana moon,
Makes a man do crazy, crazy things (Oh...)
Louisiana moon,
Done cast it's spell on me (Yeah..)
[start fading]
Louisiana moon,
Makes a man do crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy things
Louisiana moon,
Done cast it's spell on me
