WON'T YOU PLAY A SIMPLE MELODY

(by Irving Berlin)

(third part by Kirby Shaw)


PART 1

	Won't you play a simple melody

	Like my mother sang to me? ()

	One with good old fashioned harmony

	Play a simple melody ()

PART 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 want to listen to 
		rag
		()

PART 3 (Kirby Shaw)

	My heart is palpitatin'
	From all this syncopation
	[-] When I hear a band

	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
