Goodnight Ladies

[JohnT]

Played as a pub singalong on my Tyros 5.

From Wikipedia:

"Goodnight, Ladies" is a folk song attributed to Edwin Pearce Christy, originally intended to be sung during a minstrel show. Drawing from an 1847 song by Christy entitled "Farewell, Ladies", the song as known today was first published on May 16, 1867.
The "Merrily We Roll Along" chorus has the same melody as "Mary Had A Little Lamb".
Meredith Willson features the piece as the tenth number in The Music Man (1957).

John,

You get a great sound from your Tyros 5!

I have always liked how they incorporated this song into The Music Man .. having a barbershop quartet singing 'Goodnight' to the ladies while at the same time the ladies were singing 'Pick-a-little'. This version below is from an amateur stage production, not the version from the film.
