ME 'N' YOU 'N' THE MOON
(Jimmy Van Heusen (m) Sammy Cahn (l) )

as recorded by Dean Martin & backing group
1956


(Me 'n' you 'n' the moon,
We two 'n' the moon)

We don't need to swing in a hammock,
We don't need the nightingale's tune,
All we need to get goin'
Is me 'n' you 'n' the moon!

We don't need a heavenly setting,
We don't need a sleepy lagoon,
All we need to get goin'
Is me, you 'n' the moon!

Just the three of us, (what a night)
What a situation!
Just the three of us
Plus a natural inclination!

We don't need a flowery season,
Love is love, December or June!
We can make our own weather,
Just put us together,
Me 'n' you 'n' the moon!

(We don't need a comfortable parlour,
We don't need the nightingale's tune,
All we need to get goin'
Is me 'n' you 'n' the moon!)

(We don't need a horse and a buggy,
Buggy rides are over too soon!
All we need to get goin'
Is me 'n' you 'n' the moon!)

Just the three of us,
What a situation!
Just the three of us
Plus a natural inclination!

We don't need a flowery season,
Love is love, December or June!
We can make our own weather,
Just put us together,
Me and you and the moon!
