In a restaurant,
In a restaurant,
Miss Eliza Johnson
used to take a seat and wait
Till late
Till her music man
Till her music man
started in a playin'
then she rushed up to his side
and cried:

Mister, Mister melody man,
play some raggy music
on your new piano,
'cause I love the way
you juggle the keys;
Lordy goodness!
Angel man,
I'm on my knees.
That's right, that's right
play it again.
Do some funny bus'ness
with your good left hand.
Oh! Oh! I'll be a sister
to my Mister Melody Man.

Mister, Mister melody man,
play some raggy music
on your new piano,
'cause I love the way
you juggle the keys;
Lordy goodness!
Angel man,
I'm on my knees.
That's right, that's right
play it again.
Do some funny bus'ness
with your good left hand.
Oh! Oh! I'll be a sister
to my Mister Melody Man.

Awful scandalous,
Awful scandalous,
Lordy! How she hugged him
on the stool right while he played,
She stayed
Till a waiter man,
till a waiter man,
nasty, horrid creature
with a big black hand said:
"Miss, desist!"

Mister, Mister melody man,
play some raggy music
on your new piano,
'cause I love the way
you juggle the keys;
Lordy goodness!
Angel man,
I'm on my knees.
That's right, that's right
play it again.
Do some funny bus'ness
with your good left hand.
Oh! Oh! I'll be a sister
to my Mister Melody Man.

Mister, Mister melody man,
play some raggy music
on your new piano,
'cause I love the way
you juggle the keys;
Lordy goodness!
Angel man,
I'm on my knees.
That's right, that's right
play it again.
Do some funny bus'ness
with your good left hand.
Oh! Oh! I'll be a sister
to my Mister Melody Man.
