Fishin’ in the Dark Songtext
von Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Lazy yellow moon comin′ up tonight
Shinin' through the trees
Crickets are singin′ and lightning bugs
Are floatin' on the breeze, baby get ready

Across the field where the creek turns back
By the old stump row
I'm gonna take you to a special place
That nobody knows baby get ready

You and me go fishin′ in the dark
Lyin′ on our backs and countin' the stars
Where the cool grass grows
Down by the river in the full moonlight
We′ll be fallin' in love in the middle of the night
Just movin′ slow
Stayin' the whole night through
It feels so good to be with you


Spring is almost over and the summer′s come
And the days are gettin' long
Waited all winter for the time to be right
Just to take you along, baby get ready

And it don't matter if we sit forever
And the fish don′t bite
Jump in the river and cool ourselves
From the heat of the night, baby get ready

You and me go fishin′ in the dark
Lyin' on our backs and countin′ the stars
Where the cool grass grows
Down by the river in the full moonlight
We'll be fallin in love in the middle of the night
Just movin′ slow
Stayin' the whole night through
It feels so good to be with you


You and me go fishin′
(You and me go fishin in the dark)
In the dark lyin' on our backs and countin' the stars
Where the cool grass grows, down by the river
(Down by the light)
In the full moonlight we′ll be fallin′ in love in the middle of the night
(We'll be fallin in love)
Just movin′ slow

You and me go fishin'
(You and me go fishin in the dark)
In the dark lyin′ on our backs and countin' the stars
Where the cool grass grows
Down by the river in the full moonlight
(Down by the light)
We′ll be fallin' in love in the middle of the night...
