Saturday night and the Moon is out
 
 Just shinin' over top of the pines
 
 I'm headin' on down to my baby's house
 
 Gonna take her on a midnight ride
 
 Now I'm on these backroads winding down to Kickapoo Creek
 
 Dancin' and singin' to some good ol' boys like me
 
  
  Baby, there's a shooting star
 
 That was for me and you
 
 So, hold me tight, make that wish, and pray that it comes true
 
 I ain't sure of much
 
 But this I know
 
 I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold
  
 
 I brought along a little courage and coleman cooler just to help me out
 
 My hands are shaking like canebrake rattler
 
 Nothing's gonna save me now
 
 Might as well jump in head first; lay it all on the line
 
 What am I worrying about never gonna be a more perfect time
  
 
 Cause baby, there's a shooting star
 
 That was for me and you
 
 So, hold me tight, and make that wish, and pray that it comes true
 
 I ain't sure of much
 
 But this I know
 
 I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold
  
 
 Well I didn't have money for a Broadway show
 
 But the crickets are singing to the radio
 
 And we got tickets, on the very front porch
  
 
 Baby, there's a shooting star
 
 That was for me and you
 
 So, hold me tight, and make that wish, and pray that it comes true
 
 I ain't sure of much
 
 But this I know
 
 I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold
  
 
 I got a diamond in my pocket and my baby's got a heart of gold
