a 1924 dancing song
words and music by Art Kassel & Mel Stitzel

Accompaniment track:
Lyrics
- I’ve just heard a melody
That is always haunting me
Funny little strain running thru my brain
It’s as sweet as can be
It has such a pleading way
Tho’ it’s with me night and day
When I hear someone playing
I walk right up and say
Chorus
Please play for me that sweet melody
Called Doodle Doo Doo, Doodle Doo Doo
I like the rest but what I like best
is Doodle Doo Doo, Doodle Doo Doo
Simplest thing, there’s nothing much to it
Don’t have to sing, just Doodle Doo Doo it
I love it so wherever I go
I Doodle Doo Doodle Doo Doo
- I’ve heard all the melodies
From the blues to rhapsodies
They all come and go but there’s one I know
That’ll linger and tease
I’ve found all the blues a pest
Rhapsodies to me a jest
So if you want to please me
Just take this one request
