Written and Recorded by Hank Snow
Pale moon start on your journey I`m pleading to you.
Somewhere you`ll find a broken heart yearning too.
Bright stars were shining but clouds drifted by
Just to darken a true love affair,
And I know I`m to blame for the showers that fell,
They meant more than my old pal could bear.
I can`t see what happened why I went astray
But I promise I`ll never more roam.
So pale moon I`ve made you promise,
so Journey My Baby Back Home.
Pale moon start on your journey I`m pleading to you.
Somewhere you`ll find a broken heart yearning too.
They say that a new day is born when the sun
Climbs the stairs to the heaven so blue.
But to me only one day is born ev`ry year
Since I`ve cheated and been so un true.
I`m weary, I`m heart-sick, I`ve worried I`ve cried,
Down your long silver trail starts to roam.
So pale moon I`ve made you promise,
so Journey My Baby Back Home.
