Yes, there ain't no moonlight tonight, so what?
Who wants the moonlight when there's you and me in love?
Yes, no birds are singing tonight, so what?
Who wants the birdies when there's you and me in love?

Yes there ain't no privacy in the parlour,
Your sister's around,
Your brother's around,
Your father's around,
Your mother's around,
The cat is around,
The dog is around,
But that don't bother us, no!

Yes, there ain't no moonlight tonight, so what?
Who wants the moonlight when there's you and me in love?
