It does. Who told you it doesn't? All objects that have mass have gravity. The more mass they have, the more gravity they have. For small objects, the gravity is so weak as to be almost indetectable, even with extremely sensitive instruments. However, the moon's gravity is certainly strong enough to be not merely detectable but to actually physically feel.

The moon's mass is about 1/80th that of Earth, but its radius is also quite a bit less; the combination of the two yields a lunar surface gravity of about 1/6 that of Earth.
