MARY ANN REGRETS
Burl Ives recorded the aforementioned "The Moon Is High" but as far as I know this is "real" Burl Ives:
Mary Ann regrets she's unable to see you again
We're leaving for Europe next week
she'll be busy till then
They know that she loves me
but poor boys don't fit in their plan
Goodbye true love
goodbye my sweet Mary Ann.
Burl Ives was a vastly more interesting person than "Ugly Bug Ball" would have you believe.
