Walkin' Jim Stoltz Fly By The Light Of The Moon (the Bat Song)
G
Chorus: Evening bat won't you come out tonight,
D G
Come out tonight, come out tonight,
G
Evening bat won't you come out tonight,
D G
And fly by the light of the moon.
G
1) I'm going to fly with the bat with the big appetite,
D G
As she gobbles up mosquitoes most every night,
G
500 an hour is just about right,
D G
As she feeds by the light of the moon.
Chorus: Little brown bat won't you come out tonight,
Come out tonight, .....etc.....
2) I'm going to fly with the bat who lives in the
trees,
And flies through the dark with the greatest of ease,
He's slower than most, but he's faster than me,
As he feeds by the light of the moon.
Chorus: Silver-haired bat won't you come out tonight,
Come out tonight,.......etc.....
3) There's a bat with ears so big they bring
The sound to her of most everything,
Spotted fur and leather wing,
Help her feed by the light of the moon.
Chorus: Spotted bat won't you come out tonight,
Come out tonight, ......etc......
4) I'm going to fly in the cave where the bats hang
out,
With millions of their friends, it's a crowded house,
Upside down they dangle about,
Before they fly by the light of the moon.
Chorus: Free-tailed bat won't you come out tonight,
Come out tonight, ....etc.........
5) Bats are friends to you and me,
The eat lots of bugs, one, two, three,
They pollinate flowers and even some trees,
As they feed by the light of the moon.
Chorus: Come on bats won't you come out tonight,
Come out tonight, .....etc.......
Oh evening bats, and little brown bats,
And silver-haired bats, and freetailed bats,
Spotted bats and all of you bats,
Won't you fly by the light of the moon,
