Mysterious Mose

Mysterious Mose, first performed by Walter Doyle and his Orchestra in early 1930. Click on the pic for the original cartoon, starring an early version of Betty Boop! 

Whoooooo!

There's a man of mystery, roaming through this land
Ooo-Ooo-Ooo-Ooo-Ooo!
Far and near you'll hear of him, he's found on every hand
Ooo-Ooo-Ooo-Ooo-Ooo!

Every city, town and village knows this boy by now
There's a way to recognize him, let me tell you how!

If you're past that midnight dark beside a graveyard goes
And someone whistles...
Whoooooo!
That's Mysterious Mose!

Or on some dark and stormy night, while the tempest blows
If someone whistles...
Whoooooo!
That's Mysterious Mose!

He sees all, knows all, gets in everywhere
Some night, he might wait for you upon the stair![Chorus]


So if you're going down the cellar, walk upon your toes
And if someone whistles...
Whoooooo!
That's Mysterious Mose!

Whoooooo!

He sees all, knows all, gets in everywhere
Some night, he might wait for you upon the stair!

So if you're going down the cellar, walk upon your toes
And if someone whistles...
Whoooooo!
That's Mysterious Mose!

If you're past that midnight dark beside a graveyard goes
And someone whistles...
Whoooooo!
That's Mysterious Mose!

If someone whistles...
Whoooooo!
That's Mysterious Mose!
