Goofus歌词

[00:00.000] 作词 : Harold, Kahn, King
[00:18.89]I was born on a farm out in Iowa
[00:22.21]A flaming youth I was bound I would fly away
[00:24.80]I packed my grip and I grabbed my saxophone
[00:28.92]Can't read notes,but I play anything by ear
[00:34.54]I made up tunes on the sounds that I used to hear
[00:37.42]When I'd start to play folks to say
[00:39.98]'Sounds a little Goofus to me'
[00:43.17]Cornfed chords appeal to me
[00:45.79]I like rustic harmony
[00:49.11]Hold a note and change the key
[00:52.80]Hey but that's 'Goofus'
[00:55.73]Not according to the rules
[00:59.11]That you learn in music schools
[01:02.30]But the folks just dance like fools
[01:05.48]They sure go for 'Goofus'
[01:08.48]Got a job but I just couldn't keep it long
[01:12.61]The leader said that I played all the music wrong
[01:16.05]So I stepped out with an outfit of my own
[01:19.36]Got together a new kind of orchestra
[01:24.43]And we all played just the same 'Goofus'harmony
[01:27.92]And I must admit we made a hit
[01:30.93]'Goofus'has been lucky for me
