DAR'S A NEW MOON IN DE SKY.
Copyright, 1880, by Henry J. Wehman.
Words and Music by George Lester.

De jubilee am comin' on­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
De days of trouble now am gone­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
Den wake up to de blessed time­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
Oh, don't you hear dat joy-bell chimes­Dar's a new moon in de sky!

Chorus.
Wid milk and honey all de land am gwine to flow,
De poor am gwine up top, and de rich take seats below.
De days ob worry now from dis yere chile will fly,
De heart an light, for I see to-night, dar's a new moon in de sky!

Dem Brooklyn cars won't lose dar grip­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
Mad dogs won't take a Paris trip­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
Bob Ingersoll will jine de church­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
De debbel he'll be in de lurch­Dar's a new moon in de sky!-Chorus.

Jay Gould will now shell out his cash­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
De streets will all be paved wid hash­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
We'll git dat lucky number shure­Dar's a new moon in de sky!
Just play four-'leben-forty-four­Dar's a new moon in de sky!-Chorus
