Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. July 2000.

If you've got an ear for music then just gather near,
Tell me, can't you hear it buzzin' in your ear?

Is it Music? Sure it's Music,
It's the best you'll ever hear,

It's my ever lovin' honey
callin' baby dear,

Say, ain't that music weird,
strangest you ever heerd?
Say don't you be a~skeered, listen!

Oh! Ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Oh! simply meant for Kings and Queens,
don't you ask me what it means,

I just love that Hitchy Koo,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Say, he does it like no one could,
When he does it, say, he does it good.

Oh! Ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Oh! Ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Oh! simply meant for Kings and Queens,
don't you ask me what it means,

I just love that Hitchy Koo,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Say, he does it like no one could,
When he does it, say, he does it good.

Oh! Ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Oh! it acts just like a tonic to my love sick heart,
I cannot wait till ev'ning till that thing will start;

Do I love it? Sure I love it, of my life it is a part,
Like the voice of Cupid sending me his little dart,

Say, ain't that music weird,
strangest you ever heerd?
Say don't you be a~skeered, listen!

Oh! Ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Oh! simply meant for Kings and Queens,
don't you ask me what it means,

I just love that Hitchy Koo,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Say, he does it like no one could,
When he does it, say, he does it good.

Oh! Ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Oh! Ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Oh! simply meant for Kings and Queens,

I just love that Hitchy Koo,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Say, he does it like no one could,
When he does it, say, he does it good.

Oh! ev'ry ev'ning hear him sing,
It's the cutest little thing,

got the cutest little swing,
Hitchy Koo, Hitchy Koo.

Hitchy Koo
1912
Lewis F Muir and Maurice Abrahams
are credited with the music
and L Wolfe Gilbert wrote the words
MIDI
This jolly little terpsichorean adventure
comes from a book of Rag Songs
which were found by my friend
and researcher Doug Grierson
I was inspired to sequence this because once
when Doug and myself plus our
respective ladies, Doreen and Jacqui
were out at a restaurant
Doug decided to have a bit of a scratch
and three couples got up to dance.
Dr. Pitt-Payne in London sequenced the music
and our friend
Bunty Pritchard Jones
has arranged the karaoke
