Mister Moon
It was the 5th of June looking up at the moon
I said, "Mister, what's in-store for me?"
I had a sticky suspicion he heard what I said
'Cause he seemed to look back at me
I say, "What can you tell me in the way of words?"
Knowing I wouldn't get no reply
He seemed to look at me peeping down through the trees
I could swear that he winked his eye
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me what I really want to know? (Can you tell me? Can you?)
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me if my baby's gonna go?
'Cause I really, I really love her so
Oh, Mister Moon, my problems with you, I share
'Cause the one I love just don't care
I studied for an answer, so very long
Why my girl wanna do me wrong
Mister moon, is there an answer there?
Among the stars or anywhere
Ever know, oh, I know I may never know
Why I love, I love, I love a girl so
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me what I really want to know? (Can you tell me? Can you?)
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me if my baby's gonna go?
'Cause I really, I really love her so
Mister Moon, Mister Moon, know you hear me talking to you now
I know you know why, why, why, she wanna make me cry all the time
Come on and tell me why, yeah, yeah
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me what I really want to know? (Can you tell me? Can you?)
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me if my baby's gonna go?
'Cause I really, I really love her so
I don't have nowhere to go for my answer now
And I feel that you know
Why? Why?
I wanna know why
I said, "Mister, what's in-store for me?"
I had a sticky suspicion he heard what I said
'Cause he seemed to look back at me
I say, "What can you tell me in the way of words?"
Knowing I wouldn't get no reply
He seemed to look at me peeping down through the trees
I could swear that he winked his eye
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me what I really want to know? (Can you tell me? Can you?)
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me if my baby's gonna go?
'Cause I really, I really love her so
Oh, Mister Moon, my problems with you, I share
'Cause the one I love just don't care
I studied for an answer, so very long
Why my girl wanna do me wrong
Mister moon, is there an answer there?
Among the stars or anywhere
Ever know, oh, I know I may never know
Why I love, I love, I love a girl so
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me what I really want to know? (Can you tell me? Can you?)
Woah, Mister Moon, won't you tell me if my baby's gonna go?
'Cause I really, I really love her so
Mister Moon, Mister Moon, know you hear me talking to you now

'Cause I really, I really love her so
I don't have nowhere to go for my answer now
And I feel that you know
Why? Why?
I wanna know why
