The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see, cause the moon refused to shine.
There's a couple sittin ‘neath the willow tree, for love, they pine.
Little maid was kinda ‘fraid of darkness, so she said I think I'll go
Boy began to sigh, looked up in the sky and told the moon his little tale of woe, oh

Shine on, shine on harvest moon up in the sky
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June, or July
Snow time ain't no time to sit outdoors and spoon
Shine on, shine on harvest moon for me 'n' my gal

shine on harvest moon way up there in the sky.
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June, AND July? Now, looka
Snow Time ain't time no time to stay outdoors and spoon.
So shine on Harvest moon.

The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see, cause the moon refused to shine.
There's a couple sittin ‘neath the willow tree, for love, they pine.
Little maid was kinda ‘fraid of darkness, so she said I think I'll go
Boy began to sigh, looked up in the sky and told the moon his little tale of woe, oh

shine on, shine on harvest moon(shine on, shine on) Up in the sky?
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June, or July
Snow Time ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon.
So shine on, shine on harvest moon for me 'n' my gal, for me 'n my gal.
