Lyrics
1. An owl and a squirrel watched a happy couple
Spooning ‘neath the tree
They heard him say, “Be my honey
And I’ll be your bumble bee”
He whispered, “Listen to me, dearie
I always want you to be near me
Don’t ever, ever stay away
When you hear me call yoo-oo”
Chorus
“When you hear yoo-oo-oo-oo
You’ll know I’m waitin’ for you
We’ve got some lovin’ to do
Under the moon
The skies are starry and bright
The birds are sleepin’ at night
And there is no one in sight
Under the moon
Close to my heart
I feel your tender embrace
Never to part like birds in June
I’m calling yoo-oo-oo-oo
You know I’m waitin’ for you
We’ve for some lovin’ to do
Under the moon
- When night spreads its awning
You’ll find these lovers
Spooning ‘neath a tree
Hearts linked together
They vow that they will never disagree
Each night he’d call around to meet her
And at the moment he would greet her
This Romeo would start in cooing
This pretty melody
