Blue moon, keep on shining bright, You're gonna bring me back my baby tonight, Blue moon, keep shining bright. I said blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining, Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. I said blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining, Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. Well, it was on one moonlight night, Stars shining bright, whisper on high Love said good-bye. Blue moon of Kentucky Keep on shining. Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. Well, I said blue moon of Kentucky Just keep on shining. Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. I said blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining. Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue. Well, it was on one moonlight night, Stars shining bright, whisper on high Love said good-bye. Blue moon of Kentucky Keep on shining. Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue.
