Mr. Moon, he's a powerful man
Pull the ocean upon the land
Make men tell their women lies
When he comes over the rise

I was strolling through the town
Big old moon was a-smiling down
I had a bottle in my hand
Oh, that night was a-looking so grand

I ran into this girl I know
And we talked both soft and low
Then we went out for a ride
My blood was surging like the tide

Mr. Moon, he's a powerful man
He pull the ocean upon the land
And makes men tell their women lies
When he comes over the rise

Now it's late and she has to go
She said "Be there," and I say, "Well I show"
Tomorrow's sun shine upon the world
And I forget my little girl

Mr. Moon, he's a powerful man
Pull the ocean upon the land
Makes men tell their women lies
When he comes over the rise

Mr. Moon
Mr. Moon
Mr. Moon
