Performed by Loggins & Messina
Capo III in F
Caught in the middle of a moonbeam
A flicker of light
I took a look and then it run away
Back on into the night, oh.
Stopped, stopped in the tickin^� of my heartbeat
A look in his eye
Had the hunger of a mountain lion
And the thunder in fire
And every time he appears it comes as a surprise
He thinks he^s clever as foxfire
Dancin^ on a distant rise
Then when I catch that devil, ooh
There^�s gonna be a slow-down; There^�s gonna be a mighty slow-down.
Caught in the embers of my night fire
In the cracklin^� and glow
I get to feeling he^�s a-watching me
Somewhere there in the cold
And one of these days I^�m thinking I^�ll take him by surprise
He^�s not so clever as foxfire, dancing on the distant rise
And when I catch that devil, ooh.
There^�s gonna be a slow-down; There^�s gonna be a mighty slow-down.
