lyrics

Tonight I’m feeling jumpy, sort of not so right. I need to get away. This place is way to quiet.
But my spirit’s feeling heavy and my pulse is barely pumpin’.
Oh Lordy, I need somethin’.

I’ve been feeling empty, sort of hung to dry.
My heart’s been kinda lonely for my own sweet guy.
It’s just a state of mind, that’s what my grandma used to say.
Out of sight and out of mind, I’m feelin’ like I’m left behind and

I’m going out to change my story.
I’m gonna sing a different tune.
Gonna find some lights, going out tonight.
I’m goin’ howlin’ at the moon.

How long have I been sitting in my favorite chair?
When’s the last time that I had a flower in my hair?
This sudden bit of insight isn’t something I had reckoned.
I swear that I’ve been beckoned.

I’ll grab my little dress that’s got the extra swing.
The kind that in the movies they say, “What, this old thing?!”
How could I have forgotten that I like a slight commotion?
Out of sight and out of mind, I’m feelin’ like I’m left behind and

I’m going out to change my story.
I’m gonna sing a different tune.
Gonna find some lights, going out tonight.
I’m goin’ howlin’ at the moon.

Oh, it’s when you least expect it. You fancy meeting someone soon.
It doesn’t matter what comes next it’s
Pretty sure the only cure is howlin’ at the moon!

I wonder if I’ll have a single thing to say.
Will anybody even dare to come my way?
It doesn’t really matter cause I’m making my correction
And I’m changing my direction.


I’m heading for that haze that’s shining in the sky.
I’m not about to let my life just pass me by.
I’m going for a win, they better damn well let me in!
Shine me up and tease my hair and push me towards the county fair.

I’m going out to change my story.
I’m gonna sing a different tune.
Gonna find some lights, going out tonight.
I’m goin’ howlin’ at the moon.

I’m gonna take a new direction.
I’ll hum a long forgotten tune.
Gonna meet some folks gonna tell a couple jokes.
I’m goin’ howlin’ at the moon.
I need a good cajole, cause I fell into a hole.
But now I’m howlin’ at the moon.
