E A Scarecrow and a yellow moon E B7 E and a roadhouse on the edge of town. E A Hear that midnight rooster crow E B7 well Iʼll have one more before I go A E but Honey, donʼt turn out the light B7 A E ʼcause I think Iʼm in the mood for love tonight The night is cool beneath the stars ridinʼ home in Johnʼs old car got my head out in the wind here I am drunked up again but Honey, donʼt turn out the light ʼcause I think Iʼm in the mood for love tonight Me and John in a pickup truck bottle of gin and a paper cup Runninʼ wild and livinʼ hard I passed out in our front yard but Honey, donʼt turn out the light ʼcause I think Iʼm in the mood for love tonight The moon is high, the sun is down Honey came out in her night gown On the porch at a quarter to three talkinʼ to the deputy sherrif and me but Honey, donʼt turn out the light ʼcause I think Iʼm in the mood for love tonight I said Honey, donʼt turn out the light ʼcause I think iʼm in the mood for love tonight I said Honey, donʼt turn out the light ʼcause I think iʼm in the mood for love tonight
