Shine On, Harvest Moon

(专辑： Rosie Solves The Swingin' Riddle! - 1961)

The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see
For the moon refused to shine
Couple sitting underneath a willow tree
For love they did pine
Little maid was kinda 'fraid of darkness
So she said, "I guess I'll go"
Boy began to sigh, looked up at the sky
Told the moon his little tale of woe:

"Oh, shine on, shine on harvest moon up in the sky
I ain't had no loving since January, February, June or July
Snowtime ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon
So shine on, shine on harvest moon for me and my gal!"

I can't see why a boy should sigh
When by his side is the girl he loves so true
All he has to say is:
"Won't you be my bride
For I love you
Why should I be telling you this secret
When I know that you can guess?"
Harvest moon will smile
Shine on all the while
If the little girl should answer "yes"

"Oh, shine on, shine on harvest moon up in the sky
I ain't had no loving since January, February, June or July
Snowtime ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon
So shine on, shine on harvest moon for me and my gal!"
