Lyrics: Peter Rowan
Music: Peter Rowan
Jerry Garcia played this with Peter Rowan in Old And In The Way, and then did it himself with the JGB.
If you ever feel lonesome
And you're down in San Antone
Beg, steal, or borrow
Two nickels or a dime to call me on the phone
I'll meet you at Alamo Mission
Where we can say our prayers
The Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mother will heal us
As we kneel there
Chorus
In the moonlight
In the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight
In the moonlight
In the midnight
In the moonlight midnight moonlight
If you ever feel sorrow
For the deeds you have done
With no hope for tomorrow
In the setting of the sun
And the ocean is howling
For the things that might have been
And that last good morning sunrise
Will be the brightest you've ever seen
[chorus]
If you ever feel sorrow
For the deeds you have done
With no hope for tomorrow
In the setting of the sun
And the ocean is howling
For the things that might have been
And that last good morning sunrise
Will be the brightest you've ever seen
[chorus]
[chorus]
