MUSIC, MAESTRO, PLEASE!

Tommy Dorsey

- words by Herb Magidson, music by Allie Wrubel
|
|
A table near the band
|
A small one
|
Some cigarettes, a drink
|
Yes, a tall one
|
And, waiter, I could use
|
A chaser for my blues
|
|
Tonight I mustn't think of her
|
Music, maestro, please!
|
Tonight
|
Tonight I must forget
|
How much I need her
|
So, Mister Leader
|
Play your lilting melodies
|
Ragtime, jazztime, swing
|
Any old thing
|
To help me ease the pain
|
That solitude can bring
|
She used to like waltzes
|
So please don't play a waltz
|
She danced divinely
|
And I loved her so
|
But there I go
|
Tonight I mustn't think of her
|
No more memories
|
Swing out
|
Tonight I must forget
|
Music, maestro, please!
|
