Irving Berlin
Play A Simple Melody
-singer 1-
Won't you play some simple melody?
Like my mother sang to me
One with a good old fashioned harmony
Play some simple melody
-singer 2-
Musical demons set my honey a-screeming
Won't you play me some rag?
Just change that classical nag
To some sweet musical drag
Won't you play from a copy, of a tune that is choppy
You'll get all my applause, simply because
I wanna' listen to rag
