He Plays The Violin

Lyrics

[MARTHA] He never speaks his passions He never speaks his views Whereas other men speak volumes The man I love is mute In truth, I can't recall Being wooed with words at all Even now He plays the violin He tucks it right under his chin And he bows, oh he bows For he knows, yes he knows That it's heigh, heigh, heigh, diddle diddle Twixt my heart, Tom and his fiddle My strings are unstrung Heigh, heigh, heigh, heigh I am undone I hear his violin And I get that feeling within And I sigh, oh I sigh He draws near, very near And it's heigh, heigh, heigh, diddle diddle And... goodbye to the fiddle! My strings are unstrung Heigh, heigh, heigh, heigh I'm always undone [MARTHA & ADAMS] Heigh, heigh, heigh, heigh [MARTHA] Heigh When Heaven calls to me Sing me no sad elegy Say I died Loving bride Loving wife Loving life For it was heigh, heigh, heigh diddle diddle Twixt my heart, Tom and his fiddle And ever 'twill be! Heigh, heigh, heigh, heigh Through eternity! [FRANKLIN] He plays the violin [ADAMS] He plays the violin [MARTHA] He plays the violin!
