Peoria Illinoisan

It was a particularly odd and spooky night with wispy clouds passing by a full moon, so I filmed it. Add a little music, and viola! a new music video is born.

The song is called “Shining Moon” written by one of my favorite blues musicians, Lightnin’ Hopkins, and performed by one of my favorite bands, the Cowboy Junkies.

Don’t the moon look pretty
Shining down through the trees
Don’t that shining moon look pretty, baby
Shining down through the trees
You know I can see my baby
When he can’t see me

Yeah, I tiptoe to his window
Just to see my baby snore
I tiptoe to his window
Just to see how sweetie snores
You know it makes me feel like jumping, lord, lord
Through the keyhole in his door

Come crawl up to your window
Let me whisper in your ear
Come on and crawl up to your window, darling
Let me whisper in your ear
You know, I got somthing to tell you, baby
I don’t want that girl around here
…keep her away
