"Moon River" was one of the many Frank Sinatra songs in Vic Fontaine's repertoire. Vic's accompanying trio played the song in Vic's nightclub even in his absence. (DS9: "It's Only a Paper Moon")
Lyrics
Moon river wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style someday
You dream maker, you heartbreaker
Wherever you're going I'm going your way
Two drifters off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbows end
Waiting round the band
My huckleberry friend, moon river
And me
