Title: Runnin' Outta Moonlight

​Artist: Randy Houser

Economic Concepts: Scarcity; Value 

Details: Runnin Outta Moonlight' illustrates one of the most fundamental concepts in economics: scarcity.  As the night progresses, the hours of moonlight available diminish and become more scarce, thus making them more valueable.  "Come on now we're runnin' outta moonlight"           

Lyrics: 
Don't you worry 'bout gettin' fixed up
When you wake up, you're pretty enough
Look out your window at the cloud of dust that's my headlights, that's my truck

Come on baby, don't you keep me waitin'
I gotta go, I've got a reservation tailgate for two underneath the stars
Kiss on your lips when you're in my arms

Whoa, girl every now and then you get a night like this
Whoa, this is one that we don't wanna miss, no

Come on baby let me take you on a night ride
Windows down, sittin' on my side
Tick tock now we're knocking on midnight
Me and you girl runnin' outta moonlight
I wanna hold you 'till the break of dawn
Hear the crickets sing a riverside love song
Hey baby, all we got is all night
Come on now we're runnin' outta moonlight

Girl I bet you thought I lost my mind
Outta the blue pulling into your drive
Wonder why I got you way out here
Have you ever seen a sky this clear

Whoa, girl you never look better than you do right now
Whoa, oh heaven let your light shine down

Come on baby let me take you on a night ride
Windows down, sittin' on my side
Tick tock now we're knocking on midnight
Me and you girl runnin' outta moonlight
I wanna hold you 'till the break of dawn
Hear the crickets sing a riverside love song
Hey baby, all we got is all night
Come on now we're runnin' outta moonlight

Whoa, girl, every now and then you get a night like this,
Whoa, this is one that we don't wanna miss, no

Come on baby let me take you on a night ride
Windows down, sittin' on my side
Tick tock now we're knocking on midnight
Me and you girl runnin' outta moonlight
I wanna hold you 'till the break of dawn
Hear the crickets sing a riverside love song
Hey baby, all we got is all night
Come on now we're runnin' outta moonlight

Hey baby don't it feel so right
Come on now we're runnin' outta moonlight
All I wanna do is hold you tight come on, come on, come on we're runnin' outta moonlight

Whoa, yea we're runnin' outta moonlight, whoa
