Moonlight Bay
Beatles · Anthology 1
We were strolling along (twist and shout!)
On Moonlight Bay (woo hoo!)
We could hear the voices singing (I like it!)
You said you'd stay
You have broken my heart (oh, twist and shout!)
So go away
With your short fat hairy legs
On Moonlight Bay

On Moonlight Bay (woo hoo!)
We could hear the voices singing (I like it!)
You said you'd stay
You have broken my heart (oh, twist and shout!)
So go away
With your short fat hairy legs
