Yo La Tengo
Griselda
[Verse 1]
Come won't you walk with me Griselda
Wearing the dress that moonlight shines through
I am a sad and lonely boy
Since your mother said I couldn't see you

[Chorus]
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda

[Verse 2]
Do you recall last night Griselda?
Learning the lessons nature taught us
Watching the fish jump in the lake
It was lovely till your mother caught us

[Chorus]
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda

[Verse 3]
Moonflower vines upon the window
Give me a foothold for my finding
I've got a row boat on the lake
Fishing around and all the sun was shining
[Chorus]
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda

[Verse 4]
I've got a jug of wine Griselda
Why must you waste your time in sorrow?
Hold out your hand; have no fear
If were caught, I'll marry you tomorrow

[Chorus]
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda
