Black Pumas – Black Moon Rising lyrics

[Verse 1]
Under the raging sun's open fire, fire, fire
Ain't nothin' new, ain't nothin' new
We all have desires
I want you to be my woman babe
Every time you get dressed in black
You give a grown man a heart attack
I pray that good Lord will bring you back
You're my sunshine

[Chorus]
Shoot me down and break my heart
It's the black moon rising
You brave the sight, I paint the picture
And you want to do it
'Cause all she wants to do is cruise to the black moon rising
Right on, right on, baby, yeah
Cruise

[Verse 2]
What's going on?
Same ol' thing, just a different season
One hundred years and the only time she gets dressed in black
Taking flight baby, count you down
On your way off without a sound
Black moon rising above the clouds
You're my sunshine

[Chorus]
Shoot me down and break my heart
It's the black moon rising
You brave the sight, I paint the picture
Of the black moon rising
And all she wants to do is cruise
Right on, right on baby
I ain't got nothing to do now
With the black moon rising cruise

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Shoot me down and break my heart
It's the black moon rising
You brave the sight, I paint the picture
Of the black moon rising
And all she wants to do is cruise
Right on, right on baby
Right on, right on baby
