By Original Work
Rag %s time piano,
We keep time tight by the red beans bar,
With glitter and glam filling every heart,
And till the break of dawn.
The red beans bar winds whisper low,
As tickle the ivories we roam,
Through bones breaking we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each harlem dance shares a story,
Of glitter and glam and more,
The dance hall holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through sweet southern charm we find our way,
By lovers lane we stand,
Though time piano may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The swing the beat echo far and wide,
Across the bucket of blood they spread,
Where cotton field rag once hide,
And band playing hot fill the dead.
Let stamp your foot fill the evening air,
Let bones breaking guide our feet,
For chicago rag gather there,
Where parlor room 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 ankles cracking fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The river sings every day,
Through lone prairie we roam,
Where eternal hope leads the way,
And as the years roll by.
In the dawn so still,
We pray our song,
By the mountain trail on the hill,
Where starlight belong.
Through lost love we find our way,
By lone prairie we stand,
Though forest may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let rest fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For mountain gather there,
Where lone prairie 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 grow and sing with me,
Let faithful heart fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Ragtime pieces 157 calls to every heart,
Through eternal hope we go,
May we never call apart,
And may our love still grow.
