TROUBLESOME TRUMPET
(Michael Carr)

Nat Gonella’s Georgians
Also recorded by : Bob Crosby & His Orch.; Red Nichols.


Troublesome trumpet, tell me why you ruin
Beautiful music, what'cha think you're doin'
Troublesome trumpet, take the wicked thing away.

Troublesome trumpet, catch me feeling nervy
Playing these sweet things alway topsy-turvey
Troublesome trumpet, how I wish you wouldn't play.

(Trumpet break)
If you don't, you're gonna drive me crazy
Troublesome trumpet, murder on the blue notes
Searing my soul with red-hot burning through notes
Troublesome trumpet, driving me crazy
(stop, stop, love, love, love it.)

(Trumpet Interlude)

Troublesome trumpet,
Blowin' a blue note
Blowin' a low note
Troublesome trumpet
Blowin' a high note
Blowin' a low note

(Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.)
