There may be trouble ahead
But while there's moonlight and music
And love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have flied
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still have a chance
Let's face the music and dance
Soon, we'll be without the moon
Humming a different tune
And then there may be teardrops to shed

But while there's moonlight and music
And love and romance, let's face
The music and dance, dance
Let's face the music and dance
