Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer 
Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer 
Lead us lest too far we wander 
Love's sweet voice is calling yonder 
Shine little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer 
Hey, there don't get dimmer, dimmer 
Light the path below, above 
And lead us on to love! 

Glow little glow-worm, fly of fire 
Glow like an incandescent wire 
Glow for the female of the species 
Turn on the AC and the DC 
This night could use a little brightnin' 
Light up you little ol' bug of lightnin' 
When you gotta glow, you gotta glow 
Glow little glow-worm, glow 
Glow little glow-worm, glow and glimmer 
Swim through the sea of night, little swimmer
Thou aeronautical boll weevil 
Illuminate yon woods primeval 
See how the shadows deep and darken 
You and your chick should get to sparkin' 
I got a gal that I love so 
Glow little glow-worm, glow 
Glow little glow-worm, turn the key on 
You are equipped with taillight neon 
You got a cute vest-pocket 

Which you can make both slow and 

I don't know who you took a shine to 
Or who you're out to make a sign to
I got a gal that I love so 
Glow little glow-worm, glow
Glow little glow-worm, glow 
Glow little glow-worm, glow 
Glow little glow-worm, glow !!
