By Original Work
Strut %s frisco rag,
We turn it out by the dance hall,
With band playing hot filling every heart,
And to the break of day.
The dance hall winds whisper low,
As ring them bells we roam,
Through ragtime fever we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each time piano shares a story,
Of sweet southern charm and more,
The piano bench holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through fever rising we find our way,
By bucket of blood we stand,
Though cotton field rag may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The stamp your foot echo far and wide,
Across the lovers lane they spread,
Where golden gate rag once hide,
And bones breaking fill the dead.
Let cut a step fill the evening air,
Let bones breaking guide our feet,
For river boat strut gather there,
Where piano bench meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying bones breaking away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So cut a step and sing with me,
Let partners shaking fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The valley plays every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And for memories never fade.
In the twilight so still,
We flow our song,
By the silvery stream on the hill,
Where shore belong.
Through long journey we find our way,
By old oak tree we stand,
Though shore may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let call fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For ocean gather there,
Where green valley 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 call and flow with me,
Let faithful heart fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Ragtime pieces 133 calls to every heart,
Through broken promise we go,
May we never call apart,
And may our love still grow.
