Margret RoadKnight is well known here and abroad as an exceptional interpreter of songs across a broad spectrum of song genres. I am truly grateful for her participation in songs on this site. 'Make Mine Music' and 'Ship of Fools' are included in this 'WANDERER' collection.
Words & Music: Phyl Lobl; Sung by Margret RoadKnight
Make mine music mister, I'm just hooked on song,
Ever since I was a littley, I've liked to dum-de-diddely,
Keeps me tiddely, the whole night long.
Don't need Vodka, don't need Schnapps
A brandy or a whiskey … well a little one perhaps
To open up me tonsils and stop collapse.
But basically I'm hooked on song.
Folk or country plain and straight,
Serve me some 'cause I can't wait.
Make mine music mister, I'm just hooked on song,
Ever since I was a littley, I've liked to dum-de-diddely,
Keeps me tiddely, the whole night long.
Don't need snuff cigars or dope
I've found a better thing that's got a bit of hope
Its got some fire but there's no smoke
When you're hooked on song.
Rock and Roll or moody Blues,
This addiction, I can't lose.
Make mine music mister, I'm just hooked on song,
Ever since I was a littley, I've liked to dum-de-diddely,
Keeps me tiddely, the whole night long.
Don't need race tracks or the tote
When I feel a song begin to swell up in my throat
I’m over dosed on harmony and hittin' up a note
Hopelessly hooked on song.
Boogie woogie laced with jazz
Higher, higher, razz-a-mat-azz
So
Make mine music, mister music servin' man,
Make mine music either fresh or from the can
But make it real music, mister music servin-man'
'Cause I'm just hooked on song, sweet sound of singin'
I'm just hooked on song..
