Moon Over County Road

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was headed past the feed store, rolling home at half past ten When a silver saucer skimmed the silo, then it circled back again I hit the brakes, the coffee flew, my old dog hit the floor A little green light winked at me from just above the county road [Chorus] Hey, there’s a UFO over Mill Creek tonight Round as a dinner plate, burning silver-white I waved my hat, it gave a flash, then shot beyond the pines Now the whole town’s asking what I saw at quarter to nine [Verse 2] Sheriff pulled up in his cruiser with his notebook and his grin Said, “You sure it wasn’t weather?” I said, “Come on, climb in” We found three perfect circles pressed into the pasture grass And my dog won’t cross that field now, though he used to run right past [Chorus] Hey, there’s a UFO over Mill Creek tonight Round as a dinner plate, burning silver-white I waved my hat, it gave a flash, then shot beyond the pines Now the whole town’s asking what I saw at quarter to nine [Bridge] At the diner, folks are betting on a visitor from Mars While the farmer checks his fence line and I’m polishing my car If it comes around tomorrow, I’ll be ready with a grin And a thermos full of coffee, just in case they want to come in [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] Hey, there’s a UFO over Mill Creek tonight Round as a dinner plate, burning silver-white I waved my hat, it gave a flash, then shot beyond the pines Now the whole town’s asking what I saw at quarter to nine [Outro] Quarter to nine, there it goes again!
