Oh Won't You Play It Again 1913

Listen to me dear
I want to be dear
somewhere in music land.
Jump in a car dear,
It isn't far dear,
To the latest ragtime band.
You'll be crazy
when you hear it play
for the leader has a dandy way.
As the music slowly fades away,
hear the sigh oh my!
and then to the leader cry.

Oh won't you play it again.
That haunting raggy refrain,
And while we rag let it drag never flag
while the violins play that melody.
My brain is starting to creep,
Oh Gee I'm falling asleep
but no mistake,
though I ache,
when I wake,
then for goodness sake,
won't you play it again.

Oh won't you play it again.
That haunting raggy refrain,
And while we rag let it drag never flag
while the violins play that melody.
My brain is starting to creep,
Oh Gee I'm falling asleep
but no mistake,
though I ache,
when I wake,
then for goodness sake,
won't you play it again.

Give me one kiss pet,
don't let us miss pet,
that ever loving tune,
Don't make me wait pet
we shall be late pet,
if we don't get there right soon.
Here we are Hon.
you'll be in a trance
ain' you glad now,
that you took a chance,
don't that music make you long to dance
till your feet are sore
say just hear them shout encore.

Oh won't you play it again.
That haunting raggy refrain,
And while we rag let it drag never flag
while the violins play that melody.
My brain is starting to creep,
Oh Gee I'm falling asleep
but no mistake,
though I ache,
when I wake,
then for goodness sake,
won't you play it again.

Oh won't you play it again.
That haunting raggy refrain,
And while we rag let it drag never flag
while the violins play that melody.
My brain is starting to creep,
Oh Gee I'm falling asleep
but no mistake,
though I ache,
when I wake,
then for goodness sake,
won't you play it again.
