Willows were swaying
|
The water was rippling
|
The froggies were singing
|
Along with the laughing at the bank
|
|
We have the moon to thank
|
For this lovely scene
|
We might never have seen
|
If it hadn't have been for the moon
|
|
Why, look at that moon
|
Away up high, seeing everything
|
That goes by
|
Why, look at that moon
|
Why, why, why, look at the moon
|
Why, why, why, look at the moon
|
|
Sitting in the desert
|
Beneath a lonesome sky
|
Cool, my oh my, it would be
|
|
If it never been above
|
That fateful little boy
|
That one who has beheld true love through history
|
|
Why must it start?
|
Why must lovers part?
|
Why does the cheatin' go on?
|
Why have hearts turned to stone?
|
|
Why, look at that moon
|
Away up high, seeing everything
|
That goes by
|
Why, look at that moon
|
Why, why, why, look at the moon
|
Why, why, why, look at the moon
|
|
Why, look at that moon
|
Ain't it grand!
|
Why, look at that moon
|
Helps me understand
|
Why, look at that moon
|
Inspirator of many a dream
|
Why, look at that moon
|
