Moon light shines
down on the forest
from on high.
Night winds whisper
through the forest
Love's sweet sigh.
Big Chief comes
a maiden fair to woo,
Big Chief feels
a love that's fond and true,
To a pretty Indian maiden
he would coo:

Forest Queen
you're my dainty little Forest Queen,
Ev'ry love bird
in the trees above
seems a singing to you
songs of love,
about a honey moon
my little Forest Queen.
You are sweeter
than love's sweetest dream,
In your eyes
I see the love light gleam,
My little Forest Queen.

Forest Queen
you're my dainty little Forest Queen,
Ev'ry love bird
in the trees above
seems a singing to you
songs of love,
about a honey moon
my little Forest Queen.
You are sweeter
than love's sweetest dream,
In your eyes
I see the love light gleam,
My little Forest Queen.

Soon there comes
an Indian Maiden
sweet and coy.
Big Chief's heart is heavy laden
with love's joy,
Shy maid says:
"I'm lonely as can be."
Big Chief whispers:
"Won't you marry me?"
I need your bright eyes
to light up my tepee.

Forest Queen
you're my dainty little Forest Queen,
Ev'ry love bird
in the trees above
seems a singing to you
songs of love,
about a honey moon
my little Forest Queen.
You are sweeter
than love's sweetest dream,
In your eyes
I see the love light gleam,
My little Forest Queen.

Forest Queen
you're my dainty little Forest Queen,
Ev'ry love bird
in the trees above
seems a singing to you
songs of love,
about a honey moon
my little Forest Queen.
You are sweeter
than love's sweetest dream,
In your eyes
I see the love light gleam,
My little Forest Queen.
