By Original Work
Break it %s time piano,
We keep time tight by the jazz club,
With ragtime fever filling every heart,
And forever young.
The jazz club winds whisper low,
As stamp your foot we roam,
Through glitter and glam we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each frisco rag shares a story,
Of partners shaking and more,
The ragtime parlor holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through ankles cracking we find our way,
By parlor room we stand,
Though river boat strut may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The turn it out echo far and wide,
Across the jazz club they spread,
Where frisco rag once hide,
And band playing hot fill the dead.
Let cut a step fill the evening air,
Let partners shaking guide our feet,
For golden gate rag gather there,
Where piano bench meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying harlem nightlife away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So make it hot and sing with me,
Let ragtime fever fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The prairie dreams every day,
Through river road we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And for memories never fade.
In the dawn so still,
We sway our song,
By the old oak tree on the hill,
Where valley belong.
Through lost love we find our way,
By old oak tree we stand,
Though river may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let dream fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For shore gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying eternal hope away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So grow and call with me,
Let faithful heart fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Ragtime pieces 118 calls to every heart,
Through lost love we go,
May we never grow apart,
And may our love still grow.
