Full moon rising cross the blue ridge mountains It's just now starting to shine It's about time. Yes, it's about time Time to call up my baby and tell her that she's mine all mine Big old stars just hanging in the night sky Twinkling through the Georgia pines It's about time. Yes, it's about time Time to call up my baby and tell here that she's mine all mine CHORUS Every evening when the sun goes down That old bluesy feeling comes around I call my baby on the telephone I can't wait until I get back home Lonesome old train whistle blowing over yonder Headed for the end of the line It's about time yes it's just about time Time to call up my baby and tell here that she's mine all mine REPEAT CHORUS
