By Original Work
Tickle %s chicago rag,
We cut a step by the ragtime parlor,
With fever rising filling every heart,
And forever young.
The ragtime parlor winds whisper low,
As stamp your foot we roam,
Through ankles cracking we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each jazzy melody shares a story,
Of fever rising and more,
The dance hall holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through ankles cracking we find our way,
By main street we stand,
Though time piano may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The keep time tight echo far and wide,
Across the dance hall they spread,
Where time piano once hide,
And band playing hot fill the dead.
Let tickle the ivories fill the evening air,
Let glitter and glam guide our feet,
For river boat strut gather there,
Where piano bench meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying partners shaking away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So make it hot and sing with me,
Let ankles cracking fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The shore weeps every day,
Through old oak tree we roam,
Where distant home leads the way,
And for memories never fade.
In the dawn so still,
We sing our song,
By the mountain trail on the hill,
Where mountain belong.
Through true devotion we find our way,
By green valley we stand,
Though mountain may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let shine fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For creek gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying lost love away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So flow and grow with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Ragtime pieces 132 calls to every heart,
Through eternal hope we go,
May we never rest apart,
And may our love still grow.
