Lyrics
Moon River, wider than a mile
I’m crossin’ you in style some day
Old dream-maker, you heart-breaker
Wherever you’re goin’, I’m goin’ your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There’s such a lot of world to see
We’re after the same rainbow’s end
Waiting’ ’round the bend
My Huckleberry friend
Moon River and me
