The Moon Struck One (Remastered) - THE BAND

Julie and little John Tyler lived in the house next door

We would be the great triangle and to this we swore

Julie was my sweetheart, little John was my cohort

And all the wild horses in the world couldn't keep us apart

Once we went for a swim in the noonday sun

And promised to return before the moon struck one

Julie came running through the pasture - she was screaming at the sky

She fell down to her knees and the tears did fly

Little John was stung by a snake over by the lake

And it looked like he s really, really hurt - he was lying in the dirt

Who, we went it as fast as we could run

But we lost little John as the moon struck one

I was vacant, Julie was a bird with a broken wing

We were always afraid of what tomorrow might bring

We'll drive down to Durango - up and leave this place

And maybe forget the triangle with a change of pace

The car broke down when we had just begun

And we walked back to the house while the moon struck one
