Old Man Moon wake up ’cause I’ve fallen in love
So spread the news to all the stars above
Shine for my baby while we’re dancing tonight
And fill her tender eyes with love and dynamite

Song lyrics to Up A Lazy River (1930), by Hoagy Carmichael and Sidney Arodin

Up a lazy river by the old mill run
Lazy, lazy river in the noon day sun
Linger awhile in the shade of the tree
Throw away your troubles, dream a dream of me
