Lyrics
There's a late night bar that's not too far from me
A girl that's there is who I go to see
She sees me drink my beer-playing cool
This paycheck wasted keeps me as her fool
Catch the new moon Catch the new moon
She's friends with all the guys in the bar
But a minutes talk is all I got so far
She's been all around the world with the goofs
Now the revolution has got me on the loose
Catch the new moon Catch the new moon
Catch the new moon Catch the new moon
The wise men say to me move on
But I think I'll take this drink I'm too far gone
I was heading through the doorway she wished me well
My knees got weak and down the stairs I fell
Catch the new moon Catch the new moon
Catch the new moon Catch the new moon
