Moon Is Going Down

(Reverend Gary Davis)


Oh
And the moon goin' down and vanish away
And the sun refuse to shine
And every star gonna be disappear
The moon goin' down, vanish away

Somebody have stole away my Lord
Pray, tell me where he is
He's the only man can ease my mind
And give my conscience ease

And the moon goin' down and vanish away
And the sun refuse to shine
And every star gonna be disappear
The moon goin' down and vanish away
Yeah...
And the moon goin' down and vanish away
And the sun refuse to shine
And every star gonna be disappear
And the moon goin' down, vanish away
