[1st verse:] Said Miss Eliza Johnson to William Brown "Up to my home you I invite Call around some Sunday night I'd love to have you play my piano upright" Said Mister William Brown, "The pleasure is mine I can assure you lady fair" He called around next day And started in to play Just to hear Eliza declare [Refrain:] When I hear you play that piano so sweet My blood runs cold way down to my feet You sure do bring forth music Like I never heard before When you start in playing rag by the streak I could hear you play that box for a week For it does most anything but speak When you play that piano, Bill [2nd verse:] Said Mister William Brown, "I can't help but blush Because Miss Lize you flatter so I only play the worst I know While at my best to beat me so it must go" Then Miss Eliza answered, "What's that you say?
