Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Tan Shoes and Pink Shoelaces. Verses?
Blue moon, without any doo wops, was written by Richard Rogers and Larry Hart, probably in the 30s or 40s.
If you can find the movie 'Words and Music', you can revisit all their songs along with Lena Horne, Judy Garland, June Allyson, Gene Kelly, Mickey Rooney.....
When I was a kid we owned a copy of it (and a 16mm projector) and we saw it many times. I was very annoyed when someone wrecked Blue Moon by making it into a doo do doo do doo thing!
