Lyrics for Strawberry Moon
There's a strawberry moon in a blueberry sky In a garden high over Manhattan Oh, what a heavenly pattern! Even your ma and your pa Never saw such a Strawberry moon in a blueberry sky Gazing over two starry eyed people Gazing at stars round the steeple Of the church where I'll marry you soon Under a strawberry moon! Oh the moon, lovely moon What a glorious strawberry moon! I like strawberry shortcake and blueberry pie And I love champagne cocktails with cherries Darling, I think they're the berries! Must have my jar filled with fresh caviar! But a strawberry moon in a blueberry sky Makes a banquet of hot dogs and mustard Pie crust without any custard Just as long as our hearts are in tune Under a strawberry moon! How high the moon Lovely moon What a glorious strawberry moon! Oh, the moon Lovely moon Appetizing old strawberry moon! There's a strawberry moon on a blueberry sea It's a dream boat all loaded with treasure Bringing a lifetime of pleasure! It's our ship and it's coming in soon Under a strawberry moon! Oh, the moon Lovely moon What a glorious strawberry moon! Oh, the moon Lovely moon What a glorious strawberry moon!
