VersesVoices hum, crooning over Moonlight Bay Banjos strum, tuning while the moonbeams play All alone, unknown they find me Memories like these remind me Of the girl I left behind me Down on Moonlight Bay Candle lights gleaming on the silent shore Lonely nights, dreaming till we meet once more Far apart, her heart, is yearning With a sigh for my returning With the light of love still burning As in days of yore ChorusWe were sailing along On Moonlight Bay. We could hear the voices ringing; They seemed to say, "You have stolen my heart" "Now don't go 'way!" As we sang "Love's Old Sweet Song" On Moonlight Bay Some sources{{who?|date= June 2018}} alter the third line of the chorus from "voices ringing" to "darkies singing," to appeal to minstrel show tastes.{{cn|date=June 2018}} However, the original sheet music and 1912 recordings use the lyrics above. Beatles VersionWe were strolling along (twist and shout!) On Moonlight Bay (whoo!) We could hear the voices singing (I like it!) You said you'd stay (Keep up, Bongo!) You have broken my heart (oh, twist and shout!) So go away ('Have the Beatles gone?' 'No, they're here!')
