Play a Simple Melody
1914
By Irving Berlin
Won't you play some simple melody?
Like my mother sang to me.
One with a good old fashioned harmony.
Play some simple melody.
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.
