Handful of Keys

I like to tinkle on an old piana

I like to play it in a subtle mannah

I get a lot of pleasure

With a spano' keys

Underneath my finger tips

Tricklin' off o' my lips

A handful of keys

And a song to sing

Now how could you ask for more?

Than ticklin' the ivory

Singin' jive

I repeat what I said before

I like to sing a little tune that's mellah

I like to vocalize

There's nothin' swellah

I love to have a supple melody

Just tricklin' off o' my lips

A handful of keys

And a song to sing

Now how could you ask for more?

Than ticklin' the ivory

Singin' jive

I repeat what I said before

I like to tinkle on an old piana

I like to play it in a subtle mannah

I know I'll always be the top banana

With a handful of keys
