Miscellaneous
Oh, Joe, Play That Trombone
I’ve got the sweetest man
Who plays the trombone in a band;
Lordy, lordy, lordy he’s the nicest man what am
I get so giddy when he starts to play
Feel like I could just throw myself away
When he makes that trombone go wow, wow, wow
I feel myself a-slippin'
And I holler out:
Oh, Joe!
Play that trombone, Joe!
Play that trombone
It makes me crazy when you throw it up high
And when you bring it down it really starts to sigh
You know
It makes me happy, Joe
Now make it snappy
'Cause when you start to jazz I get a feeling from the start
It gives me such an itching and a twitching
Round my heart
I never knew I loved you till you made it moan
Now, Joe!
Joe!
Play the trombone!
Oh, Joe
Play that trombone, Joe!
Play that trombone
It makes me crazy when you throw it up high
And when you bring it down it really starts to sigh
You know
It makes me happy, Joe
So make it snappy
'Cause when you start to jazz
I get a feeling from the start
It gives me such an itching and a twitching
Round my heart
I never knew I loved you till you made it moan
Now, Joe, Joe, Joe!
Play the trombone!
