Ethel Waters
Oh Joe, Play That Trombone
[Verse]
I've got the sweetest man who plays the trombone in a band
Lawdy, lawdy, lawdy, he's the nicest man what am
I get so giddy when he starts to play
Feel like I could just throw myself away
When he makes that trombone go "Waa, waa, waa"
I feel myself a-slippin', then I holler out

[Chorus]
Oh Joe, play that trombone
Joe, play that trombone
It makes me crazy when you throw it up high
And when you bring it down and swing it side to side
You know, it makes me happy
Joe, now make it snappy
'Cause when you start to jazz, I get a feeling from the start
That gives me such a itching and a creeping round my heart
I never knew I loved you 'til you made it moan
Oh Joe, Joe, play the trombone

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Oh Joe, play that trombone
Joe, play that trombone
It makes me crazy when you throw it up high
And when you bring it down and swing it side to side
You know, it makes me happy
Joe, now make it snappy
'Cause when you start to jazz, I get a feelin' from the start
That gives me such a itchin' and a creeping round my heart
I never knew I loved you 'til you made it moan
Oh Joe, Joe, Joe, play the trombone
