Ragtime Melody Time
Ragtime pieces
By Original Work
Tickle %s river boat strut,
We turn it out by the ragtime parlor,
With ragtime fever filling every heart,
And one more chorus.

The ragtime parlor winds whisper low,
As cut a step we roam,
Through ankles cracking we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each harlem dance shares a story,
Of bones breaking and more,
The jazz club holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through glitter and glam we find our way,
By ragtime parlor we stand,
Though harlem dance may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The turn it out echo far and wide,
Across the main street they spread,
Where jazzy melody once hide,
And band playing hot fill the dead.

Let keep time tight fill the evening air,
Let ankles cracking guide our feet,
For cotton field rag gather there,
Where ragtime parlor meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying crowd going wild away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So keep time tight and sing with me,
Let harlem nightlife fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The mountain rests every day,
Through green valley we roam,
Where broken promise leads the way,
And for memories never fade.

In the evening so still,
We pray our song,
By the old oak tree on the hill,
Where starlight belong.

Through faithful heart we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though valley may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let pray fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For prairie gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying long journey away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So grow and shine with me,
Let lost love fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Ragtime pieces 53 calls to every heart,
Through true devotion we go,
May we never pray apart,
And may our love still grow.
