about

Written sometime in the early 70's about my love's "under the radar" activities. Based on true events. All debts to society have been paid.

lyrics

As night comes on in quiet deep; I try to take a little sleep.
But sleep won't come to me this night.
The smuggler's moon is on the rise.

I'm never sure when he takes his leave
If I should smile or I should grieve.
His soul is with the trip I know...
Just hope it don't get lost in Mexico.

Smuggler's moon, I know you've seen
Some fortunes made and blood lost for the green.
Tell me please, I've got to know
How my love fairs in Mexico.

He's on his way in the hands of fate
a short, rough strip then pick up the weight
He's all fueled up, wheels in the well.
Will he sleep at home or in a jailer's cell?

He's a damn good man and he knows his plane
but I worry when he's workin' just the same.
A simple line drawn on a map
Can be the key to riches or an agents trap

Smuggler's moon, I know you've seen
Some fortunes made and blood lost for the green.
Tell me please, I've got to know
How my love fairs in Mexico.

He says one more and he'll be done...
Then we can kick back and have some fun.
But the money don't last and he has to go
Make one more run to Mexico.
