I love the piano


I love a piano, I love a piano.
I love to hear somebody play upon a piano, a grand piano.
It simply carries me away.
I know a fine way to treat a Steinway.
I love to run my fingers o'er the keys, the ivories.
And with the pedal I love to meddle.
When Padarewski comes this way.
I'm so delighted if I'm invited to hear a long haired genius play.
So you can keep your fiddle and bow.
Give me a p-i-a-n-o o o.
I love to stop right beside an upright,
or a high toned baby grand.
