這首1975年的冠軍鄉村歌曲，是由Billie Joe Spears首錄推出，但也是她唯一的一首冠軍歌曲。 

早前我只是覺得這首歌好聽，也沒注意歌詞是在唱些什麼，但一看資料可不得了了，它說：「The song was written by Roger Bowling and sung from the point of view of a middle-aged woman who coaxes (哄誘) her hesitant husband outdoors to make love in the moonlight‧」呵呵，原來唱的是中年婦女的心聲。 

以下我所選的是Heidi Hauge的版本(亂談55─Save the last dance for me也是選她的版本)，老實說，我還真不知這位大姐是從哪蹦出來的，好像是挪威人。聽她唱歌淡淡的似乎沒什麼激情，但聽久了就會有那種令人想再回味的感覺。再，樂隊的彈奏風格也配合得很不錯。哈哈！其實還有她的歌想介紹，但等下次囉。

Come and look out through the window
The big old moon is shinin' down
Tell me now don't it remind you
Of a blanket on the ground

Remember back when love first found us
We'd go slippin' out of town
And we'd love beneath the moonlight
On a blanket on the ground

Chorus
I'll get the blanket from the bedroom
And we'll go walkin' once again
To the spot down by the river
Where our sweet love first began
Just because we are married
Don't mean we can't slip around
So let's walk out through the moonlight
And lay the blanket on the ground

Oh remember how excited
We used to get when love was young
That old moon was our best buddy
We couldn't wait for night to come

Now you know you still excite me
I know you love me like i am
Just once more i wish you love me
On the blanket on the ground

Chorus
I'll get the blanket from the bedroom
And we'll go walkin' once again
To that spot down by the river
Where our sweet love first began
Just because we our married
Don't mean we can't slip around
So let's walk out through the moonlight
And lay the blanket on the ground.
