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
