lyrics

JANIE, TAKE A WALK WITH ME

There’s a big moon shining, yes, and I can see
Come on Janie, take a walk with me
That it’s just about as pretty as a moon can be
Come on Janie, take a walk with me

And it’s shining on the river as it runs through town
And it’s shining on the buildings darling, all around
And we’ll keep on walking ‘til the moon goes down
Come on Janie, take a walk with me

There’s a soft wind blowin’, I don’t mean to push
Come on Janie, take a walk with me
But it’s picking up the blossoms in the lilac bush
Come on Janie, take a walk with me

There’s a night bird calling and he sounds so sweet
It’s the kind of night when the lovers meet
And without you darling I am incomplete
Come on Janie, take a walk with me

Now when we get to where we’re going
We’ll be back where we started from
So we really gotta get going
If we’re gonna take our time
Take our time

All the peepers gonna sing their pretty song tonight
Come on Janie, take a walk with me
‘Cause they’re down in the mud in the moonlight
Come on Janie, take a walk with me

There’s a jet plane flying about five miles high
And we can wave to the people as they pass on by
So come on now honey
Baby my, my, my
Come on Janie, take a walk with me
