Charlie Musselwhite - Shootin' for the Moon lyrics

Waitin' there by the side of the River Waitin' there but she did not show Wringin' his hands & shakin' his head Checkin' his watch, it's time to go They say the sky is the limit Perfected in the mirror of the mightly Mississippi Shootin' for the moon Crash landed in the crescent city I hear the truth, it's all you can see There is a trick in the thick of it all The ghost in the fog is a thin line Between first light & last call Waitin' there by the side of the River Ready to cross to the other shore Waitin' there by the side of the River It never looked so wide before
