Musical Moon 1911

Moon songs
you've heard a lot of moon songs
a lot of crazy loon songs
'bout the lovers
'neath the moon who spoon;
Coon songs
the last for ever coon songs
the ending never coon songs
and they're all about
the same old moon.
They never write a song
about the afternoon,
it's all about bright light
midnight moon
Moon struck writers
without a doubt,
The moon is all they rave about
beautiful moon
dutiful moon;
shining for every beautiful tune.

That good old musical moon
that they sing about in every tune,
never wearing out
painted on the scenery
of a musical play.
Funny moon
Honey moon,
always gets the money moon,
Musical moon,
that rhymes with spoon and coon and June
Ev'ry first class singing girl and boy,
from "Tetrazine" to Eddie Foy
ever since the days of old San Toy
they've been beating that musical moon.

That good old musical moon
that they sing about in every tune,
never wearing out
painted on the scenery
of a musical play.
Funny moon
Honey moon,
always gets the money moon,
Musical moon,
that rhymes with spoon and coon and June
It's been a good old moon
for Andrew Mack
Nora Baynes and her husband Jack
a thousand others of 'em take a crack
at the good old musical moon.

Coon time,
they write them all in coon time,
The lover says it's soon time,
for my lady love
to come and spoon;
June time,
they always make it June time,
he's waiting there from noon time,
for his honey
and the same old moon.
They never write a song
about a rainy night,
they always have the night
so light and bright;
if we go looney
the moon's to blame,
a man named mooney
must hate his name,
Mysterious moon,
Delirious moon,
we're getting to think
you're a serious moon.

That good old musical moon
that they sing about in every tune,
never wearing out
painted on the scenery
of a musical play.
Funny moon
Honey moon,
always gets the money moon,
Musical moon,
that rhymes with spoon and coon and June
Ev'ry first class singing girl and boy,
from "Tetrazine" to Eddie Foy
ever since the days of old San Toy
they've been beating that musical moon.

That good old musical moon
that they sing about in every tune,
never wearing out
painted on the scenery
of a musical play.
Funny moon
Honey moon,
always gets the money moon,
Musical moon,
that rhymes with spoon and coon and June
It's been a good old moon
for Andrew Mack
Nora Baynes and her husband Jack
a thousand others of 'em take a crack
at the good old musical moon.
