| I like to tinkle on an old piana
|
| I like to play it in a subtle mannah
|
| I get a lot of pleasure
|
| With a spano' keys
|
| Underneath my finger tips
|
| Tricklin' off o' my lips
|
| A handful of keys
|
| And a song to sing
|
| Now how could you ask for more?
|
| Than ticklin' the ivory
|
| Singin' jive
|
| I repeat what I said before
|
| I like to sing a little tune that’s mellah
|
| I like to vocalize
|
| There’s nothin' swellah
|
| I love to have a supple melody
|
| Just tricklin' off o' my lips
|
| A handful of keys
|
| And a song to sing
|
| Now how could you ask for more?
|
| Than ticklin' the ivory
|
| Singin' jive
|
| I repeat what I said before
|
| I like to tinkle on an old piana
|
| I like to play it in a subtle mannah
|
| I know I’ll always be the top banana
|
| With a handful of keys |
