[Verse 1]

The river's on the rise, crows are in the skies

Look at that big yellow cornbread moon

Now that you're lookin', do you feel something cookin'?

Look at that cornbread moon

Well, I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't see your eyes shine soon

[Verse 2]

Sometimes I feel like maybe I will

I'll jump through the keyhole in your door

Ooh, honey, I ain't being funny

Through your hardwood door

And then sometimes I feel like yes I will for sure, for sure

[Verse 3]

Walkin' by that river, did I feel you start to shiver?

Leaves on the trees turning red and gold

Here and there, baby, everywhere maybe

All shades of red and gold

Now all you need is somebody warm to hold

[Verse 4]

Now the river's on the rise, crows are in the skies

Look at that big yellow cornbread moon

Now that you're lookin', do you feel something cookin'?

Look at that cornbread moon

And I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't see your eyes shine soon, yeah
