Here are the lyrics to “Blue Moon of Kentucky” by Elvis Presley:
“Blue moon, blue moon, blue moon, keep shining bright
Blue moon, keep on shining bright
You’re gonna bring me back, my baby tonight
Blue moon, keep shining bright
I said, “Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that’s gone and left me blue”
I said, “Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that’s gone and left me blue”
Well, it was on one moonlight night, stars shining bright
Whispered on high, love said good-bye
Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that’s gone and left me blue
Well, I said, “Blue moon of Kentucky, just keep on shining
Shine on the one that’s gone and left me blue”
I said, “Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that’s gone and left me blue”
Well, it was on one moonlight night, stars shining bright
Whispered on high, love said good-bye
Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that’s gone and left me blue”

For More Golden Oldies Music
The Daily Doo Wop Rec Room has daily featured doo wop music, rock and roll hits, R&B, or rockabilly songs that were hits during the first era of rock and roll (that is, from about 1952 until the British invasion in 1964). After a song is featured, it then goes into the juke box. You are welcome to listen to any of the 40+ selections there. Every weekend, there is a Golden Oldies Juke Box Saturday Night, and the juke box is full of song requests from the 1950s and 1960s.
