Hon hear that man,
ain't his music simply grand,
I could stay and hear him play
that way all day.
He's a bear, he's a dear,
and his eyes they look so queer,
when he starts a playin'
ev'ry little movement.
Lord play that strain
just repeat it once again,
if you do I'll stick around til after ten.
Then I'll take you where you please,
you can tease me at your ease,
as you play that lovin' melody.

Please my honey, please
come on and ease your baby,
tinkle off those tuneful tones that tease
your lady's heart to start
and go and throw her lovin' arms
around her baby beau.
Oh, Bill, I can't keep still
it makes me thrill
until I get my fill,
right there the music's queer,
it's got my ear,
I'll nestle near, Oh Honey,
ev'ry little note means love
when Billy plays that way.

Please my honey, please
come on and ease your baby,
tinkle off those tuneful tones that tease
your lady's heart to start
and go and throw her lovin' arms
around her baby beau.
Oh, Bill, I can't keep still
it makes me thrill
until I get my fill,
right there the music's queer,
it's got my ear,
I'll nestle near, Oh Honey,
ev'ry little note means love
when Billy plays that way.

Hon here's the flat,
hang your hat upon the rack,
the piano's in the corner over there,
take a chair, that's a dear,
now for playin' please prepare,
syncopate the sweetest songs
that sooth me, move me,
Oh, Chanticleer,
I'm your little chicken dear,
there's a reeling feeling,
stealing over me.
Ev'ry note I hear you play,
seems to carry me away.
Right into the hand of harmony.

Please my honey, please
come on and ease your baby,
tinkle off those tuneful tones that tease
your lady's heart to start
and go and throw her lovin' arms
around her baby beau.
Oh, Bill, I can't keep still
it makes me thrill
until I get my fill,
right there the music's queer,
it's got my ear,
I'll nestle near, Oh Honey,
ev'ry little note means love
when Billy plays that way.

Please my honey, please
come on and ease your baby,
tinkle off those tuneful tones that tease
your lady's heart to start
and go and throw her lovin' arms
around her baby beau.
Oh, Bill, I can't keep still
it makes me thrill
until I get my fill,
right there the music's queer,
it's got my ear,
I'll nestle near, Oh Honey,
ev'ry little note means love
when Billy plays that way.
