《Poor Mr Chisholm》歌词

[00:00:00] Poor Mr Chisholm - Fred Astaire

[00:00:07] Got a mandolin

[00:00:08] Bought it secondhand

[00:00:10] From a Mister Chisholm

[00:00:12] In the local band

[00:00:13] Had the sweetest tone

[00:00:15] Resonant and low

[00:00:17] Often made you wonder

[00:00:18] Why he let it go

[00:00:20] If you have the time

[00:00:22] How they parted company

[00:00:23] And he offered it for sale

[00:00:24] Mate fascinating bail

[00:00:26] Poor Mr Chisholm

[00:00:28] Played on the mandolin

[00:00:31] But he couldn't win

[00:00:33] 'Cause he tried to swing

[00:00:34] And he broke a string

[00:00:36] Every time

[00:00:40] Poor Mr Chisholm

[00:00:42] Just couldn't dig the jive

[00:00:45] When he did arrive

[00:00:46] At the proper note

[00:00:48] He arrived by boat

[00:00:50] Every time

[00:00:53] He tried to jazz up his mandolin

[00:00:57] But never could quite control it

[00:01:00] He always brought Bach

[00:01:02] And Handel in

[00:01:04] When it took a lick

[00:01:05] He always broke a pick

[00:01:07] Poor Mr Chisholm

[00:01:09] You're quite a gay old blade

[00:01:12] With your serenade

[00:01:13] But you're corny Jack

[00:01:15] Better truck on back

[00:01:17] To Dubuque

[00:01:19] Get a uke

[00:01:20] You disgrace your kin

[00:01:22] On the mandolin

[00:01:24] Every time

[00:02:28] What a man

[00:02:30] You disgrace your kin

[00:02:32] On the mandolin

[00:02:33] Every time
