Little Tune Go Away 1918 Kern

Strikes upon your list'ning ear
filling all the atmosphere,
One, long, sweet song,
on your face a happy smile,
comes to visit all the while,
Oh, dear, just hear.
There is surely melody there,
in the palpitating air,
and a flow of harmony clear
is perpetually near.

That's the tune whose croon perpetual,
late or soon is bound to get you all,
no use trying to say
Little tune, go away.
If you try to argue with him,
he'll reply in a syncopated rhythm.
I'm the tune they call perpetual,
I'm here to stay.

That's the tune whose croon perpetual,
late or soon is bound to get you all,
no use trying to say
Little tune, go away.
If you try to argue with him,
he'll reply in a syncopated rhythm.
I'm the tune they call perpetual,
I'm here to stay.

When she sees that little scamp
trouble takes her cue to vamp,
Dull care, no where,
while the melody holds sway
all the universe is gay,
Birds sing, bells ring,
there is heaps of loving to spare.
Ev'rybody has their share,
and November days are like June
when you hear that cunning tune.

That's the tune whose croon perpetual,
late or soon is bound to get you all,
no use trying to say
Little tune, go away.
If you try to argue with him,
he'll reply in a syncopated rhythm.
I'm the tune they call perpetual,
I'm here to stay.

That's the tune whose croon perpetual,
late or soon is bound to get you all,
no use trying to say
Little tune, go away.
If you try to argue with him,
he'll reply in a syncopated rhythm.
I'm the tune they call perpetual,
I'm here to stay.
