Fred Astaire
Poor Mister Chisholm
Poor Mr. ChisholmPlayed on the mandolinBut he couldn't winCause he tried to swingAnd he broke a string every timePoor Mr. ChisholmJust couldn't dig the jiveWhen he did arrive at the proper noteHe arrived by boat every timeHe tried to jazz up his mandolinBut never could quite control itHe always brought Bach and Handel inWhen it took a lick, he always broke a pickPoor Mr. ChisholmYou're quite a gay old bladeWith your serenade, but you're corny, JackBetter truck on back to DubuqueGet a Uke-You disgrace your kinOn the mandolin every time
