The drum has lost its ready ta ta now, now
The piccolo treat is gone
You never boom in the timpani now, now
The band can't play it's song

Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can to get back in life
Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can just one more time

Just one more time
Oh, one more time

No more zoom in the slide trombone now, now
No more sigh in the violin
And I can't hear that guitar line alone
Or the jingle jangle in the tambourine

Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can to get back in life
Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can just one more time

Just one more time
Oh, one more time

And you'll hear music (Yeah)
Like you never heard before
We'll play your music (Yeah)
Like you never heard before
And we won't let you down anymore

Give that drum back its ready ta ta too, girl
Put the sigh in the violin
Put that boom back in the timpani now, now
And the jingle jangle in the tambourine

Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can to get back in life
Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can just one more time

Just one more time
Oh, one more time

And you'll hear music (Yeah)
Like you never heard before
We'll play your music (Oh)
Like you never heard before
And we won't let you down anymore

Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can to get back in life
Please, mister music man
You got to help us if you can just one more time

Just one more time
Oh, one more time

And you'll hear music (Yeah)
Like you never heard before
We'll play your music (Yeah)
Like you never heard before

And you'll hear music (Yeah)
Like you never heard before
We'll play your music (Yeah)
Like you never heard before
