Captain Beefheart - Moonlight On Vermont lyrics

Moonlight on Vermont affected everybody Even Mrs. Wooten well as Little Nitty Even lifebuoy floatin' With his lil' pistol showin' 'n his lil' pistol totin' Well that goes t' show you what uh moon can do No more bridge from Tuesday t' Friday Everybody's gone high society Hope lost his head 'n got off on alligators Somebodies leavin' peanuts on the curbins For uh white elephant escaped from the zoo with love Goes t' show you what uh moon can do Moonlight on Vermont Well it did it for Lifebuoy And it did it t' you And it did it t' zoo And it can do it for me And it can do it for you Moonlight on Vermont Gimme dat ole time religion Gimme dat ole time religion Don't gimme no affliction Dat ole time religion is good enough for me Uh it's good enough for you Well come out t' show dem Come out t' show dem (repeat five times) Gimme dat ole time religion (repeat) It's good enough for me Without yer new affliction Don't need yer new restrictions Gimme dat ole time religion It's good enough for me Moonlight on Vermont
