| The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see
|
| For the moon refused to shine
|
| Couple sittin' underneath the willow tree
|
| For love they’d 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…
|
| Shine on, shine on harvest moon, up in the sky-y
|
| I ain’t had no lovin' since January, February, June or July
|
| Snowtime ain’t no ti-ime to stay outdoors and spoon
|
| So shine on, shine on harve-e-est moon
|
| Don’t make-a me wait too lo-ong
|
| My love for you is much too strong
|
| I ain’t had no, I ain’t had no lovin' since
|
| January, February, June or July
|
| When all the skies are grey
|
| I wanna go inside and stay
|
| So light up, oh light up Fast or slow come past that door, and
|
| Shi-i-i-ine on harvest moon
|
| Gi-ive some love again
|
| I ain’t had none since a-Lord knows when
|
| No time, ain’t no time to stay outside a-and try to spoon
|
| So shine on, shine on harvest moon
|
| For me, for me and my gal
|
| Pass that light, fair and kind
|
| How much lo-ove will be mine
|
| Harvest moon, come on, come on, come o-o-on…
|
| Shi-ine… |
