G. Friday/The Heads



Another Saturday night

And she knows where she's goin'

To that small corner bar

On the far side of town

Folks call her Ol' Faithful

'Cause she's always hangin' aroun'

Dressed up shimmy-shammy

In her sequins and pearls



Hey, there, Moon

Blue, blue moon

I'm all alone

Blue, blue moon

Without a love of my own



A 'Stoli' on ice

Makes everything just right

She laughs and chit-chats

With whoever's around

'I've been there - done that -

Have you heard the one about -?'

No one ever listens

And they don't hear the sound



Hey, there, Moon

Blue, blue moon

I'm all alone

Blue, blue moon

Without a love of my own



Just looking for a friend

Someone to dance with me

A little romance

Cheek to cheek!

Someone to hold

And dance the night away



'Tick-tock'

Goes the barroom clock

It's quarter past two

And the night's wearing thin

She salutes the happy couples

Bids them all fond 'Adieu!'

'Barman, make mine a double!

Cinderella, here, has lost her shoe!'



Hey, there, Moon

Blue, blue moon

I'm all alone

Blue, blue moon

Without a love of my own



'So, I'll make believe

Someone danced with me!'

She used to sing, she used to cry

But, now

She doesn't even try

Because she knows the stars

- Those bright & shiny stars! -

Have all fallen, fallen from the sky



The moon is blue

The moon is blue

The moon is blue

The moon is blue

The moon is blue
