Could you be referring to the turn of the last century tune called "My
Sweetheart's The Man In The Moon?"  If so, I believe it was recorded on an
Edison cylinder by Ada Jones.  The last two lines are:
"....then behind a dark cloud where no one is allowed,
I'll make love to the man in the moon."

This is a slightly off topic question because it doesn't involve a 78, but
it involves songs from the 78 era and before.
I am looking for information on a Bing Crosby LP of Sing-a-Long medleys. 
This LP has mostly older turn-of-the-century type songs than the one
available often on eBay and other Internet sites.  One song on it that would
definitely define the right one is the rare GUM SHOE CANOE.  Some of the
others are ANNIE LAURIE, CASEY JONES, WHILE STOLLING THROUGH THE PARK ONE
DAY, and the one I am really interested in obtaining, I'M IN LOVE WITH THE
MAN IN THE MOON.
Does anyone know the title of this LP, and label and number?
Or maybe someone might know of other recordings of the latter song.  An
Internet search has come up empty.
