I LOVE A PIANO From the Broadway Musical "Stop! Look! Listen!" (1915) (Words and Music by Irving Berlin) Harry Fox & Ensemble (Broadway Production) - 1915 Billy Murray - 1916 Walter Van Brunt - 1916 Grace Nash & M.J. O'Connell - 1916 Judy Garland (feat. in the film "Easter Parade") - 1948 Blossom Seeley - 1957 Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians - 1958 Burl Ives - 1961 Jeannie Carson - 1968 As a child I went wild when a band played How I ran to the man when his hand swayed Clarinets were my pets, and a slide trombone I thought was simply divine But today when they play I could hiss them Ev'ry bar is a jar to my system But there's one musical instrument that I call mine I love a piano, I love a piano I love to hear somebody play On a piano, a grand piano It simply carries me away I know a fine way To treat a steinway I love to run my fingers O'er the keys, the ivories And with the pedal I love to meddle When Padarewski comes this way I'm so delighted if I'm invited To hear that long haired genius play So you can keep your fiddle and your bow Give me a p-i-a-n-o-oh-oh I love to stop right beside an upright Or a high toned baby grand When a green tetrazine starts to warble I grow cold as an old piece of marble I allude to the crude little party singer Who don't know when to pause At her best I detest the soprano But I run to the one at the piano I always love the accomp'niment and that's because I love a piano, I love a piano I love to hear somebody play On a piano, a grand piano It simply carries me away I know a fine way To treat a steinway I love to run my fingers O'er the keys, the ivories And with the pedal I love to meddle When Padarewski comes this way I'm so delighted if I'm invited To hear that long haired genius play So you can keep your fiddle and your bow Give me a p-i-a-n-o-oh-oh I love to stop right beside an upright Or a high toned baby grand (Contributed by Andy & Mogg - November 2002) (Updated by Mel Priddle - May 2018)
