Dainty Little Moonbeams
Elvis Presley · Kid Galahad/Girls, Girls, Girls! [1962]
Girls in kimonos, shy little flowers
Smiling from beneath their parasols
Dainty little moonbeams, delicate as china
Gentle little oriental dolls
Smiling from beneath their parasols
Dainty little moonbeams, delicate as china
Gentle little oriental dolls
