[00:00.00]I Love a Piano / Snooky Ookums / When the Midnight Choo Choo Leaves for Alabam' - Fred Astaire/Peter Lawford
[00:06.42]I love a piano I love a piano
[00:09.27]I love to hear somebody play upon a piano a grand piano
[00:15.41]It simply carries me away
[00:19.35]I know a fine way to treat a Steinway
[00:26.00]I love to run my fingers o'er the keys the ivories
[00:31.77]And with the pedal I love to meddle
[00:34.78]When Padarewski comes this way
[00:37.76]I'm so delighted if I'm invited
[00:41.06]To hear that long haired genius play
[00:44.31]So you can keep your fiddle and your bow
[00:47.49]Give me a p-i-a-n-o oh oh
[00:50.70]I love to stop right beside an upright
[00:54.08]Or a high toned baby grand
[01:11.14]All night long he calls her snookey ookum snookey ookums
[01:18.49]All they do is talk like babies
[01:25.53]She's his jelly elly roll
[01:29.07]He's her sugey ugar bowl
[01:33.01]Hear the way they bill and coo
[01:36.56]Poogywoo poogywoo poogywoo
[01:40.34]All night long he calls her snookey ookums snookey ookums
[01:47.57]All nigh long the neighbors shout
[01:50.99]"Cut it out Cut it out Cut it out"
[01:54.81]They cry
[01:56.02]"For goodness sake don't keep us all awake
[02:01.69]With your snookey Ookey ookey baby talk"
[02:24.08]When the midnight choo choo leaves for Alabam'
[02:27.15]Alabam Alabam
[02:28.23]I'll be right there I've got my fair
[02:33.34]When I see that rusty haired conductor man
[02:37.83]I'll grab him by the collar and
[02:39.94]I'll holler"Alabam' Alabam'"
[02:42.29]That's where you stop your train
[02:45.00]That brings me back again
[02:47.03]Down home where I'll remain
[02:49.31]Where my honey lamb am
[02:52.46]I will be right there with bells
[02:55.81]When that old conductor yells
[02:58.41]"All aboard All aboard All aboard for Alabam"
