歌词
The concert was over in Carnegie Hall
The maestro took bow after bow
He said, "My dear friends, I have given my all
I'm sorry, it's all over now"
When from the gallery way up high
There suddenly came this mournful cry
Mr. Paganini
Please play my rhapsody
And if you cannot play it won't you sing it?
And if you can't sing it you simply have to
♪
Mr. Paganini
We breathlessly await your masterful baton
Go on and sling it
And if you can't sling it you simply have to
♪
We've heard your répertoire
And at the final bar
We greeted you with wild applause
But what a great ovation
Your interpretation
♪
Mr. Paganini, don't you be a meanie
What have you up your sleeve?
Come on and spring it
And if you don't spring it, that means you have to
♪
Oh, Mr. Paganini, please play my rhapsody
And if you cannot play it, won't you sing it?
And if the boys are bopping
Ain't no need in stopping
♪
Mr. Paganini
We breathlessly await your masterful baton

At the final bar
We greeted you with wild applause

Listen Paganini
Now, don't you be a meanie
What have you up your sleeve?
Come on and spring it
And if you don't spring it, that means you have to

We greeted you, we greeted you
