Love Me or Leave Me: Sam, the Old Accordion Man
In Dixieland
There's a musical man
He has a good time
Just making folks happy
This musical man Is a one-man band
Folks have to love him
For makin' them glad
He don't play melodies
Just plays blue harmonies
Just like nobody ever had
He just plays chords
That makes you feel grand
They call him Sam, the old accordion man
His dreamy chords remind you of Heav'n
And they're real chords, according to Dixieland
In the evening by the moonlight
When the sun is gone down
How those lovers, levee lovers
Love to hang around
He plays those chords like nobody can
They call him Sam, the old accordion man
Old chords, new chords
Funny or blue chords
Mornin', night or noon
Say he's got chords
Nothing but hot chords
Never out of tune
In the evening by the moonlight
When the sun is gone down
How those lovers, levee lovers
Love to hang around
He plays those chords like nobody can
They call him Sam, Sam, Sam!
