Drop ev'rything and turn on
the old music box
Old memories return on
the old music box
Let's laugh and get away from
the cares of the day
Turn on the old music box
Take a hold of your little partner's hand
The time is right, the rhythm's grand
It's better than a great big band
Although it's just a tinkle, tinkle
Turn on a little music,
some old fashioned thing
Play any little tune with
an old fashioned swing
Let's have a little song
we can join in and sing
Turn on the old music box

All alone by itself way up on a shelf
Sets the dear old music box
Let's take it down and gather around
And sing while the little thing plays
Sing ladeeay sing ladeeoh
If you can't sing that,
sing whatever you know
Sing ladeeay, sing ladeeum
If you don't know the words just hum, Let's

Drop ev'rything and turn on
the old music box
Old memories return on
the old music box
Let's laugh and get away from
the cares of the day
Turn on the old music box
Take a hold of your little partner's hand
The time is right, the rhythm's grand
It's better than a great big band
Although it's just a tinkle, tinkle
Turn on a little music,
some old fashioned thing
Play any little tune with
an old fashioned swing
Let's have a little song
we can join in and sing
Turn on the old music box.
