Serenade

Songs

DOWN IN THE OLD CHERRY ORCHARD

Down in the old cherry orchard Under the old cherry tree Every night by the moon’s silvery light She would sing love songs to me.

Tliere’s where I fondly caressed her.

There’s where she promised she’d be Down in the old cherry orchard.

Under the old cherry tree.

ON A CHINESE HONEYMOON

On a Chinese Honeymoon In the merry month of June.

Together we will wander beneath the silvery moon, And we’ll buy a toy balloon And we’ll sail up to the moon, To the land of tea and roses On a Chinese Honeymoon.

OH, MR. MOON

Oh. Mister Moon, Moon Bright and silvery moon Won’t you please shine down on me.

Oh, Mister Moon, Moon Great big shining moon Hiding behind that tree.

Here comes a farmer, with a big shot-gun.

He’s gonna shoot me if I start to run.

Oh, Mister Moon, Moon Great big shining moon Won’t you please shine down on Please shine down on Please shine down on me.

SHINE ON HARVEST MOON

So shine on, shine on Harvest Moai up in the Sky I ain’t had no lovin’ since January, February, June, or July.

Slow time ain’t no time To sit outdoors and spoon So shine on, shine on Harvest Moon for me and my gal. hcwey, honey

Honey, honey, bless your heart.

My honey that I love so true.

My heart beats true, I love but you.

My honey that I love so true.

TELL ME WHY

Tell my why the stars do shine.

Tell me why the ivy twines.

Tell me why the ocean’s blue And 1 will teU you just why I love you.

Because God made the stars to shine.

Because God made the ivy twine Because God made the ocean blue.

Because God made you, that’s why 1 love you.
