lyrics

well let me tell you about Mister Christopher Moon
he goes out at night armed with a bowl and spoon
seeing what soup can be found
served up all around the town
the one and only Mister Christopher Moon

well Mister Moon rides himself around
he lifts his wheels right on off the ground

and there might be a woman there
whether or not,
he don’t care
the one and only Mister Christopher Moon

he'd say
“C’mon and be my bomp-ba-bom
c’mon and be my shoo-bop-shoo-bop
c’mon and be my rima-lima-ding-dong
come on and be me blue blue blue blue moon

well Mister Moon come into town with a girl
he left with one more after leaving her
came back had the first once more
then he just went back and forth
the one and only Mister Christopher Moon

well Mister Moon loves the little girls
the little girls in and out of his world
all the little girls the hang around
do the frog and hang upside down
all for the love of Mister Christopher Moon, he’d say

“C’mon and be my bomp-ba-bom
c’mon and be my shoo-bop-shoo-bop
c’mon and be my rima-lima-ding-dong
come on and be me blue blue blue blue moon
blue blue moon, blue blue moon...”

well Mister Moon went south to take a chance
he went down there for a real-life romance
and he fell down and high she stayed, left him on the Texas floor to lay
the only and only Mister Christopher Moon

I’d go out searching for Christopher Moon
in every two-bit rundowntown saloon
Diana would say,”I don’t know..
how that boy he comes or goes, tell me
what’ll we do with Mister Christopher Moon?” he’d say..

“C’mon and be my bomp-ba-bom
c’mon and be my shoo-bop-shoo-bop
c’mon and be my rima-lima-ding-dong
come on and be me blue blue blue blue moon”

well Mister Moon tried to settle down
keep on his finger a lucky ring he found
swearing this time it’ll last, them days of heartbreak in the past
the one and only Mister Christopher Moon

well on my left arm I got me a tattoo
bop-shoo-wop, bop-bop shoo-wop
a tattoo of a cheese filled cartoon moon
bop-shoo-bop, bop-bop-shoo-wop
people say “What’s that ‘bout?”
I just say “Hey c’mon now...
let me tell ya ‘bout Mister Christopher Moon”
