[ Featuring Darlene Edwards ]
Won't play a simple melody
Like my mother sang to me
She sang she sang to me (smooth)
One with good old fanioned harmony
Why don't you play a simple melody
A simple melody a simple melo
Won't you Play A Simple Melody
Like my mother sang to me?
One with good old fashioned harmony
Play A Simple Melody
Musical demon, set your honey a'dreamin'
Won't you play me some rag?
Just change that classical nag
To some sweet beautiful drag
If you will play from a copy of a tune that is choppy
You'll get all my applause
And that is simply because
I want to listen to rag
My heart is palpitatin'
From all this syncopation
When I hear a ba-_nd
And when I'm with my honey
My feet start actin' funny
When I hear a band
It's really not surprisin'
My temp'rature keeps risin'
When I hear a band
So pardon all my swoonin'
My crazy way of croonin'
When I hear a band
