DOODLE DOO DOO
Words & music by Art Kassel & Mel Stitzel, ©1924.
1. I've just heard a melody
That is always haunting me.
Funny little strain,
Running through my brain,
It's as sweet as can be.
It has such a pleading way.
Though it's with me night and day,
When I hear someone playing,
I walk right up and say:CHORUS: Please play for me
That sweet melody
Called doodle-doo-doo, doodle-doo-doo.
I like the rest,
But what I like best
Is doodle-doo-doo, doodle-doo-doo.
Simplest thing—
There's nothing much to it.
You don't have to sing,
Just doodle-doo-doo it.
I love it so!
Wherever I go,
I doodle-doo, doodle-doo-doo.2. I've heard all the melodies
From the blues to rhapsodies.
They all come and go,
But there's one I know
That'll linger and tease.
I've found all the blues a pest;
Rhapsodies to me a jest,
So if you want to please me,
Just take this one request: CHORUS
