Lyrics:

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

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

verse 3a
play For Me
that Good Old-Fashioned Harmony
oh, Won't You Play For Me
a Simple Melody

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
