(Whistle)

Now if you think that I am lookin' somewhat tanner
Don't go blamin' it on the sun
It's the moonlight and the sweetness in your manner
That's makin' me the healthy one
When the moon hangs low, I begin to glow
And my day has just begun....

I'm gonna get a moonburn
When I'm with you tonight
So very soon I'll moonburn
When you hold me tight

I'll ask the glowing stars up above me
What your lips will impart
And when they flash the word that you love me
You know it's gonna warm my heart

I'll get a brand new moonburn
With every kiss from you
And if I have my way, get my say
You'll get a moonburn too

(Yes, moonburn it, Joe!)
(Lightly, sweetly and tenderly!)
(Dream it up, Joe!)
(Ooh-ooh)
(Aah, truck on down, doh-doh-doh)
(Whistle)
(Dream it up, ah, dream it!)

Oh, I'm catchin' me some moonburn
When I get you alone with me tonight
So very soon I'll moonburn
When you hold me tight

I'll ask the glowing stars up above me
"Tell me what your lips will impart"
And when they flash the word that you love me
Oooh, it'll warm my heart

I'm gonna get me a brand new kind of a moonburn
With every kiss I get from you-ou-ou
And if I get my way, get my say
You'll get a moonburn too
Keep under cover
You'll get a moonburn too-oo-oo

As performed by BING CROSBY in the film "Anything Goes"
with a few lyric changes:


(Whistle)

Now if you think that I am lookin' somewhat tanner
Don't blame it on the sun
It's the moonlight and the sweetness in your manner
That's makin' me the healthy one
When the moon hangs low I begin to glow
And my day has just begun

I'm gonna get a moonburn
When I'm with you tonight
So very soon I'll moonburn
When you hold me tight

I'll ask the glowing stars up above me
What your lips will impart
And when they flash the word that you love me
It'll warm my heart

I'll get a brand new moonburn
With every kiss from you
And if I have my way, if I can have my say
You'll get a moonburn too

I'm catchin' me some moonburn
When I get you alone with me tonight
So very soon I'll moonburn
When you hold me tight

I'll ask the glowing stars up above me
"Tell me what your lips will impart"
And when they flash the word that you love me
Oooh, it'll warm my heart

I'm gonna get me a brand new kind of a moonburn
With every kiss I get from you-ou-ou
And if I have my way, get my say
You'll get a moonburn too
Stay under cover
You'll get a moonburn too
