Verse:

Ban -jos are a -ring -ing, and the dark -ies sing -ing Down on Mo -bile Bay

Stars are bright -ly shin -ing, and my heart is pin -ing For the south each day.

My sweet -heart is wait -ing, cute and fas -ci -nat -ing Where I left her by the o -cean shore

That is why I'm yearn -ing, and my thoughts are turn -ing To Mo -bile once more.

 

Chorus:

On Mo -bile Bay Hon -ey stole my heart a -way

Be -side the sea When she gave a lov -ing kiss to me.

She said "Good -bye" While the moon was shin -ing high

On the dream -ing, beam -ing, gleam -ing Mo -bile Bay.
