By The Light Of The
Silvery Moon

Written by Gus Edwards, 1919
Sequencing by Don Ferguson


Place park, scene dark,
Silv'ry moon is shining thro' the trees:
Cast two, me, you,
Sound of kisses floating on the breeze;
Act one, begun,
Dialogue "Where would you like to spoon?"
My cue, with you,
Underneath the silv'ry moon.

Chorus:
By the light of the silvery moon,
I want to spoon,
To my honey I'll croon love's tune,
Honey moon keep a shining in June,
Your silv'ry beams will bring love dreams
We'll be cuddling soon,
By the silvery moon.


Act two, scene new,
Roses blooming all around the place;
Cast three, you, me,
Preacher with a solemn looking face.
Choir sings, bell rings,
Preacher "You are wed forevermore."
Act two, all through,
Ev'ry night the same encore;

Chorus:
