Lyrics

  1. What d’ya do in the eve’ning
    When you don’t know what to do
    Read a book? Play a game?
    Ev’ry night is just the same
    What d’ya say if I tell you
    How to keep from feeling blue
    My advice is good to take
    And it’s easier to do

Chorus
When you’re all alone, any old night
And you’re feeling out of tune
Pick up your hat, close up your flat
Get out and get under the moon
Underneath the bright silvery light
You’ll be feeling better soon
Pick up your hat, close up your flat
Get out and get under the moon
Look, look, look at the stars above
Look, look, look at those sweeties love
Oh Boy! Give me a night in June
I mean it, all you gotta do any old night
When you’re feeling out of tune
Pick up your hat, close up your flat
Get out and get under the moon

  1. You’re not alone in the moonlight
    Tho’ you may be all alone
    By yourself you can feel
    Here’s one place where life is real
    How can you think about trouble
    In that dreamy atmosphere
    Walk along and hum a song
    And be happy that you’re here
