Me 'n' you 'n' the moon
The Rat Pack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me 'n' you 'n' the moon
We two 'n' the moon

We don't need to swing in a hammock
We don't need the nightingale's tune
All we need to get going
Is me 'n' you 'n' the moon
We don't need a heavenly setting
We don't need a sleepy lagoon
All we need to get going
Is me 'n' you 'n' the moon

Just the three of us
What a situation?
Just the three of us
Plus a natural inclination

We don't need flowery season
Love is love December or June
We can make our own weather
Just put us together
Me 'n' you 'n' the moon

We don't need a comfortable parlor
We don't need the nightingale's tune
All we need to get going
Is you 'n' me 'n' the moon

We don't need a horse and a buggy
Buggy rides are over too soon
All we need to get going
Is me 'n' you 'n' the moon

Just the three of us
What a situation?
Just the three of us
Plus the natural inclination

We don't need flowery season
Love is love December or June
We can make our own weather




Just put us together
Me 'n' you 'n' the moon
