[Verse 1]
All day Friday I'd be daydreaming
Of borrowing my old man's Catalina
And picking up my baby just as the sun went down
We'd look in the paper to see what was showing
In case her Daddy asked us
Where we were going
Then we'd head on out to a place that we'd found
On the outskirts of town
[Chorus]
Out on Moonshadow Road
Where we all used to go
Part of growing up
Was learning 'bout love
By the light of the radio
Not a care in the world
Just a boy and a girl
We found out all we need to know
Out on Moonshadow Road
[Verse 2]
That's where we learned
'Bout giving and taking
And how young love can be heart breaking
We took our first chances, made our first mistakes
Just an old dirt road in the middle of nowhere
But there's so much we came to know there
I'll always remember those sweet summer nights
That felt so right
[Chorus]
Out on Moonshadow Road
Where we all used to go
Part of growing up
Was learning 'bout love
By the light of the radio
Not a care in the world
Just a boy and a girl
We found out all we need to know
Out on Moonshadow Road
[Chorus]
Out on Moonshadow Road
Where we all used to go
Part of growing up
Was learning 'bout love
By the light of the radio
Not a care in the world
Just a boy and a girl
We found out all we need to know
Out on Moonshadow Road
