Portrait of Irving Berlin Irving Berlin,  Yiddle, On Your Fiddle, Play Some Ragtime (1909)

“ Yiddle on his fiddle played some ragtime,
And when Sadie heard him play,
She jumped up and looked him in the eyes.
Yiddle swelled his chest way out,
Ev'ryone was taken by surprise,
When they heard Sadie shout:
Chorus
"Yiddle, in the middle of your fiddle, play some ragtime;
Get busy, I'm dizzy, I'm feeling two years young,
Mine choc'late baby, if you'll maybe play for Sadie,
Some more ragtime;
Yiddle, don't you stop,
If you do, I'll drop,
For I just can't make any eyes shut up,
Yiddle on your fiddle, play some ragtime."
