Play It Again, Jerry


Play It Again, Jerry

He plays some great tunes, on the piano keys

With his magic for music, and the greatest of ease

Play it again, Jerry, I've got a request

I know when you play, it is the best



Tune up the piano, because of the weather

Because what you play, it gives us so much pleasure

With a smile on his face, he plays

The piano keys move, and he swings and sways



The Entertainer, he'll play for you

He even plays the Accordion too

Come on people, let's listen to Jerry

The music he plays, will make you feel merry



His sense of humor, brings a laugh from the crowd

Many will smile, and laugh out loud

That's not the name of the song!

He knows that already, he's never wrong



Thanks for the music Jerry, you struck the right key

A song means a lot, when it is played for me

You brought back some memories, with the song you played

Look at my face, and you can see the smile it has made

You got my soul a dancing, I just had to say

Let's hear another song Jerry, let's hear you play







I first heard Jerry Beauchamp on the Accordion at North Woods

Place. He's played many years on Mackinac Island. His ear for

music has brought music to the ears of his audience. He plays

music with a musical talent and so much zest. He tunes the piano

so it plays the best, so he can give his best. Thank you my friend

for playing the music we love to hear.
