Lyrics
- Some boys like girlies that dance well
With clothes, silken hose, soft and fine
Some look for money, but I’ve got a honey
Who plays a piano divine, Oh
Chorus
Melody girl, I love you
I’m always thinking of you
When I’m sad and lonely
I want you to stay and play that lovin’ way
For melodies seem to haunt you
Melody girl, I want you
I can’t forget your smile and love light that beams
For you’re the melody girl of my dreams
- All of us dream about someone
Of someone we cannot forget
I like to dream of some beautiful theme
That reminds me of my little pet, Oh
