Moon River



Artist: Andy Williams

(# 11 Billboard hit for Jerry Butler in 1961)

Words by Johnny Mercer and Music by Henry Mancini

from the movie "Breakfast At Tiffany's" starring Audrey Hepburn





Moon river, wider than a mile

I'm crossing you in style some day

Oh, 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, waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me



(Moon river, wider than a mile)

(I'm crossin' you in style some day)

Oh, 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 that same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me



(Moon River, Moon River)
