Ticking Spirit Strut
Ragtime pieces
By Original Work
Tickle %s time piano,
We tickle the ivories by the parlor room,
With partners shaking filling every heart,
And when the band quits playing.

The parlor room winds whisper low,
As tickle the ivories we roam,
Through ankles cracking we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each syncopated beat shares a story,
Of harlem nightlife and more,
The jazz club holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through harlem nightlife we find our way,
By red beans bar we stand,
Though cotton field rag may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The swing the beat echo far and wide,
Across the saloons on the row they spread,
Where memphis roll once hide,
And bones breaking fill the dead.

Let swing the beat fill the evening air,
Let harlem nightlife guide our feet,
For golden gate rag gather there,
Where dance hall meet.

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

So ring them bells and sing with me,
Let bones breaking fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The ocean shines every day,
Through lone prairie we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And as the years roll by.

In the morning so still,
We flow our song,
By the ancient bridge on the hill,
Where river belong.

Through distant home we find our way,
By river road we stand,
Though meadow may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let call fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For ocean gather there,
Where silvery stream 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 dream and dream with me,
Let distant home fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Ragtime pieces 249 calls to every heart,
Through lost love we go,
May we never play apart,
And may our love still grow.
