This is the version that I remember from my childhood: Moon, moon, great big silvery moon Won't you please shine down on me. Oh Mister Moon, Moon great big silvery moon Won't you please come from behind that tree? For I know a man with a big shotgun, and he's go'na come 'n getchya if you dare to run. So Moon, Moon, great big silvery moon won't you please shine down on -talk about your shining- Won't you please shine down on me.
