Lyrics Captain Beefheart – Moonlight On Vermont

Moonlight on Vermont affected everybody
Even Mrs. Wooten well as Little Nitty
Even lifebuoy floating with his
Little pistol showing and his little pistol toting

No more bridge from Tuesday to Friday
Everybody’s gone high society

Hope lost his head and got off on alligators
Somebody’s leaving peanuts on the curbins for a
White elephant escaped from the zoo with love
Goes to show you what a moon can do
Moonlight on Vermont

Well it did it for lifebuoy and it did it to you
And it did it to zoo and it can do it for me
And it can do it for you
Moonlight on Vermont

Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
Don’t gimme no affliction
That old time religion
It’s good enough for me
Ah, it’s good enough for you

Well, come out to show them, come out to show them
Come out to show them, come out to show them
Come out to show them, come out to show them
Come out to show them

Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
It’s good enough for me

Without your new affliction
Don’t need your new restrictions
Gimme that old time religion
It’s good enough for me

Moonlight on Vermont
