The Magic Melody



[Verse]
 * What's the name of that melody?
 * Something mighty sweet about it, something hard to beat about it
 * Oh What's the name of that melody?
 * What a pitty [sic] not to know the name of such a pretty ditty


 * It always seems to interrupt you when you're talking,
 * It seems to lift you from your feet and start you walking,
 * When the cellos and the fiddles start in to fiddle that middle part
 * Clouds, fears, sighs, tears, disappear as if by Magic.

[Chorus]
 * The world goes around to the sound of a Syncopated melody,
 * Come on take a chance and we'll dance to the Syncopated melody,
 * Beware have a care, have a care, when you're doin' it
 * Keep moving or you'll ruin it and just so you'll know we'll show you
 * all the late improvements in those syncopated movements,
 * Oh you start kind of slow till you know how to throw your shoulders in the air.


 * Then you slide and you glide 'round the room in an attitude of "I don't care!"
 * You'll dance and you'll sway and you'll think and you'll talk to it,
 * You'll work and you'll play, and you'll drink and you'll walk to it,
 * You can't get away from that Magic Melody.
