The Band Played On
Words by John Palmer, Music by Charles Ward (1926), Guy Lombardo
Casey would waltz with a strawberry blond,
And the Band played on.
He'd glide cross the floor with the girl he a-dor'd,
And the Band played on.
But his brain was so load-ed it nearly exploded,
The poor girl would shake with alarm.
He'd never leave the girl with the strawberry curls,
And the Band played on.
