There may be trouble ahead
But while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still
Have a chance
Let's face the music and dance

Soon
We'll be without the moon
Hummin' a different tune
And then

There may be teardrops to shed
So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

(Instrumental break)

Soon
We'll be without the moon
Hummin' a different tune
And then
There may be teardrops to shed
So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance
Let's face the music and dance, dance
Let's face the music and dance
