Oh, yellow moon, yellow moon   Why you keep peeping in my window?   Do you know something   Do you know something that I don't know?      Did you see my baby   Walking down the railroad tracks?   You can tell me, oh, if the girls   Ever coming back      Is she hid out with another   Or is she trying to get back home?   Is she wrapped up in some other's arms?   Or is the girl somewhere all alone?      Can you see if she is missing me   Or is she having a real good time?   Has she forgotten all about me   Or is the girl still mine all mine?      With your eye so big a shiny   You can see the whole damn land   Yellow moon, can you tell me   If the girl's with another man, man?      Oh, yellow moon, yellow moon, yellow moon   Have you seen that creole woman   You can tell me   Oh, now ain't you a friend of mine      With your eye so big a shiny   You can see the whole damn land   Yellow moon, can you tell me   If the girl's with another man, man?      Oh, yellow moon, yellow moon, yellow moon   Have you seen that creole woman   You can tell me   Oh, now ain't you a friend of mine
