Little Ol' Tune

I know a friend of mine And his business is writing songs It's a kind of a gift and I get a big lift From his melodies and diphthongs We got to talk him once I was curious as could be To explain what to do, let him tell it to you Just the way it was told to me First you write a little ol' tune, real easy Not as hard to play as let's say part cheesy Real simple chords in the key of C A melody you can groove Next you add some little ol' words on to it Try to get some people who'll sing to do it Then if they say, ?My have you got a hit? You act non committal and say, ?Just a little ol' tune? Now record your little ol' tune, just hum it Could you try to fancy it up? Far from it Dub in some top tenor harmony Just me, me, me, as you groove Yes, next you sing a baritone part from way back Add a zoom, zoom, bass and then start the playback And when they say, ?Ma, he's singing forte? You act non committal and say, ?Just a little ol' tune? You act non committal and say, ?Just a little, just a little ol' tune? --- Little Ol' Tune - Bing Crosby and Louis Armstrong
