Melody Maker 1939 JPitt-Payne

In a world of sadness
where the sky is seldom blue
music can bring gladness
that is what I'm here to do.
If you're feeling gloomy
if your plans have all gone wrong
bring your troubles to me
I'll dispel them with a song.

I'm a simple melody maker
from an idle dream I can take a
simple theme
and out of it make
a melody.
If you feel unhappy or tearful
if you need a song
that is cheerful
listen to the melody maker man.
Hear me play
sweet music
will drive your cares away
and in a while
I'll win a smile
hear me play and when I depart
I hope maybe
to leave in your heart
a mem'ry of
the melody maker man.
