Sugar Moon
Composer(s): Percy Wenrich - Stanley Murphy



Lindy Lou and Jasper in the fields of sugar cane
Down in Loosiana, Jasper was so love sick, that his heart was filled with pain 
For his Lindy Lou
When the sun was shining bright
He'd make love with all his might
Lindy'd say: "You're acting like a loon
Don't come fussin' 'round at noon
Nighttime is the time to spoon
Underneath the sugar moon"

Jasper says to Lindy: "Won't you be my lovin' bride?" 
Sugar moon am shinin'
Lindy says "Uh huh", and cuddles closer to his side
Wedding mighty soon
Gwine to have a barbecue
Gwine to roast an ox or two
Possum pie 'simmon jam and coon
Can't you hear the banjos ring 
Can't you hear Miss Lindy sing 
Underneath the sugar moon?

When the sugar moon am moonin' 
You can spoon and keep on spoonin'
Croon a tune and keep on croonin' 
When you croon, croon a tune, that a coon can croon in June
For I love to hear you hummin'
And I dearly love to spoon
But my lovin' coon, turtle dovin' coon
Underneath the sugar moon
