Oh, honey, tell me why you're feeling so blue,
Oh, honey tell me what has come over you,
you're acting mighty strange of late, baby dear,
Come over here,
make yourself clear,
maybe some one told you
some one's calling on me,
Maybe you are wond'ring
who that someone can be,
I won't cry to you,
I won't lie to you,
I'll just tell you what's true.

He is my music teacher,
he's such a lovin' creature,
I get an hour ev'ry day,
My heart is fairly bumpin'
because I'm learning somethin'
It's such a blessin'
to get a private lesson,
His touch is so magnetic,
his ways are so pathetic,
I'm pickin' things up mighty fine,
He says he's surely goin' to show me how show,
me how to play the music from Il Trovatore,
I'm learning things I never knew before,
Ev'ry day I'm learning more,
learning more,
From that music teacher of mine.

He is my music teacher,

me how to play the music from Il Trovatore,
I'm learning things I never knew before,
Ev'ry day I'm learning more,
learning more,
From that music teacher of mine.

Now don't you ever call
between two and three,
my teacher says we must have some privacy,
I'm doing fine
for all the lessons I had,
Don't look so sad,
don't look so mad,
Ev'ry time I make mistakes
he squeezes my arm,
Ev'ry squeeze he gives me
seems to have such a charm,
He's so good to me,
good as he can be,
You're not angry with me.
