Author: Roy Lee Johnson; Lead vocal: John Lennon

(take 1)
Mr. Moonlight
[Oh stop!

Nearly!

Yes, not bad that one.]

(take 4)
Mr. Moonlight

You came to me one summernight
And from above you sent my love
And from the world you sent my girl
And from your beam you make my dream
And the night you don't come my way
I'll pray and pray more each day
'Cause we love you, Mr. Moonlight

Mr. Moonlight, come again please
Here I am on my knees
Begging if you please
And the night you don't come my way
I'll pray and pray more each day
'Cause we love you, Mr. Moonlight

Brrr, oh!
Oh!
Brrr, ow!

And the night you don't come my way
Oh, I'll pray and pray more each day
'Cause we love you, Mr. Moonlight

Mr. Moonlight, come again please
Here I am on my knees
Begging if you please
And the night you don't come my way
Oh, I'll pray and pray more each day
'Cause we love you, Mr. Moonlight
Mr. Moonlight
Mr. Moonlight
Mr. Moonlight
Mr. Moonlight (fade out)
