Shine on, shine on harvest moon
High up in the sky
I ain't had no one to love me
Since April, January, 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
Night was mighty dark
So you could hardly see
The moon refused to shine
Couple sitting underneath a willow tree
For love they pined
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
[musical interlude]
[2nd verse]
Shine on harvest moon!
Oh, shine on!
Can't you hear me callin'?
Shine on!
[scatting]
Can't you see, I'm feeling blue
And it all depends on you, oh!
Shine on harvest moon
Oh, shine on!
All the nights keep callin'
Shine on!
[scatting]
Shine on harvest moon
For me and my gal!
High up in the sky
I ain't had no one to love me

Snowtime ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon

So you could hardly see
The moon refused to shine
Couple sitting underneath a willow tree
For love they pined

Oh, shine on!

Shine on!

Shine on harvest moon
For me and my gal!
