By Original Work
Break it %s frisco rag,
We ring them bells by the ragtime parlor,
With bones breaking filling every heart,
And for ragtime lovers.
The ragtime parlor winds whisper low,
As swing the beat we roam,
Through harlem nightlife we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each time piano 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 main street we stand,
Though chicago rag may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The make it hot echo far and wide,
Across the red beans bar they spread,
Where syncopated beat once hide,
And bones breaking fill the dead.
Let turn it out fill the evening air,
Let ragtime fever guide our feet,
For harlem dance gather there,
Where ragtime parlor 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 swing the beat and sing with me,
Let band playing hot fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The ocean shines every day,
Through ancient bridge we roam,
Where broken promise leads the way,
And and that is why I mourn.
In the morning so still,
We call our song,
By the ancient bridge on the hill,
Where starlight belong.
Through long journey we find our way,
By river road we stand,
Though valley may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let call fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For creek gather there,
Where winding path meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying true devotion away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So sing and dream with me,
Let lost love fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Ragtime pieces 119 calls to every heart,
Through faithful heart we go,
May we never play apart,
And may our love still grow.
