[00:00.00] 作曲 : William Harold & Gus Kahn & Wayne King & Harold William
[00:01.00] 作词 : Harold, Kahn, King
[00:18.89] I was born on a farm out in Iowa
[00:22.21] A flaming youth I was bound I would fly away
[00:24.80] I packed my grip and I grabbed my saxophone
[00:28.92] Can't read notes,but I play anything by ear
[00:34.54] I made up tunes on the sounds that I used to hear
[00:37.42] When I'd start to play folks to say
[00:39.98] 'Sounds a little Goofus to me'
[00:43.17] Cornfed chords appeal to me
[00:45.79] I like rustic harmony
[00:49.11] Hold a note and change the key
[00:52.80] Hey but that's 'Goofus'
[00:55.73] Not according to the rules
[00:59.11] That you learn in music schools
[01:02.30] But the folks just dance like fools
[01:05.48] They sure go for 'Goofus'
[01:08.48] Got a job but I just couldn't keep it long
[01:12.61] The leader said that I played all the music wrong
[01:16.05] So I stepped out with an outfit of my own
[01:19.36] Got together a new kind of orchestra
[01:24.43] And we all played just the same 'Goofus'harmony
[01:27.92] And I must admit we made a hit
[01:30.93] 'Goofus'has been lucky for me
