An Ear for Music
He has an ear for music, and he has an eye for a maid.
He likes a pretty girlie, with each pretty tune that's played.
They go together, like chill water with the hottest day.
He's studied girls and music, so he's qualified to say.
A pretty girl is like a melody that haunts you night and day,
Just like the strain of a haunting refrain,
She'll start upon a chase and run around your brain.
You can't escape she's in your memory. By morning, night and noon.
She will leave you and then come back again,
A pretty girl is just like a pretty tune.
By Irving Berlin
