The Barbershop Chord letra

In the evening by the moonlight, you should drop,
you folks should drop down to the old barbershop.

Old barbershop...
down in the great big rathskeller
where a swell colored fella,
by the name of Bill Jefferson Lord

Played the piano while he'd sing a song
Mmm-mmm.
Till...one night a starry-eyed lady
they call lovable Sadie heard him playing that barbershop chord.

When he finished Sadie drew a sigh.
Everytime that she would catch his eye she'd cry...
Mr. Jefferson Lord.
Ooh-wah
play the barbershop chord
Ooh-wah
that soothing harmony
Ba da da da
it makes an
awful, awful, awful hit with me.
Play that strain
Ahhh
just to please me again
ahhh

'Cause, Mister, when you start that minor part,
I feel your fingers slippin' and a-grippin' my heart.

Oh, Mr. Lord.
Play the barbershop chord
Mr. Jefferson Lord
Thomas Jefferson Lord
play that barbershop chord
play the barbershop chord
that soothing harmony
sweet harmony
makes a terrible, terrible, terrible
terr-boo-hoo-hoo-hoo (this is said while Veronica is still singing terrible)
hit with me.
Play that strain
Play that strain
just to please me again


just to please me again.
'Cause, Mister, when you start that minor part,
I feel your fingers slippin' and a-grippin' my heart.
