Story Behind The Song
Looking at the moon one night, I saw the grin of the Cheshire Cat and there we go. I have recorded this song on a couple of recordings, I think this is the best. It is off my "Whatcah Gonna Do" CD from 2003.

Lyrics
CHESHIRE MOON by GARY WICKIZER
Cheshire moon up in the blue.
I look at you, and I wonder who.
Oh whom are you smiling at tonight?
Cheshire moon way out there.
I look at you and I got to stare.
Oh, whom are you smiling at tonight?
(CHORUS)
Don't you know there's trouble in the land.
Things are getting our of hand.
It's hard to find enough food to eat.
Get new soles for the shoes on your feet.
Cheshire Moon in the sky.
I look at you and I wonder why.
Oh why, are you smiling so bright tonight?
Oh, Cheshire Moon a way out there.
I look up at you, and I wonder where.
Oh, where is my sweet baby at tonight?
(CHORUS)
Repeat 1st two verses and chorus and out.
