It was in Peru And the moon was full Working long hours, I went early To bed and didn't see the moon that often I had gone ashore where I met Maria in a bar We walked down to the beach Sat on an upturned rowing boat looking at Luna Naturally, we made love on satin sand Slept entwined She walked back to the bar I walked onboard Happy and thinking how wonderful life was Five days later I needed an injection of penicillin.
