Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on the riverside,

They're drinking up and walking and it is time for me to slide.

A cock is crowing far away and another soldier's deep in prayer,
G D5 G C D G D5 G C G
Some mother's child has gone astray, she can't find him anywhere.

Whom nature's beast fears as they come and all I see are dark eyes.

A million faces at my feet but all I see are dark eyes.
