Play a Simple Melody Lyrics

Pd... Musik: Irving Berlin ℗1914.
Lyrik: ฤฤ ฤฤ ...Pd.

Pd... {Verse 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
Pd... {Verse 2}
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 wanna listen to rag

Pd... {Verse 3A}
Play for me
That good old-fashioned harmony
Oh, won't you play for me
A simple melody
Pd... {Verse 3B}
Play from a copy of a tune that is choppy
You'll get all of my applause because
I wanna rag it
Ragtime melody ...Pd.
