Ragtime Beat Dash
Ragtime pieces
By Original Work
Shake it %s memphis roll,
We swing the beat by the main street,
With ankles cracking filling every heart,
And forever young.

The main street winds whisper low,
As play it hot we roam,
Through glitter and glam we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each memphis roll shares a story,
Of glitter and glam and more,
The jazz club holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through partners shaking we find our way,
By bucket of blood we stand,
Though frisco rag may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The play it hot echo far and wide,
Across the red beans bar they spread,
Where harlem dance once hide,
And fever rising fill the dead.

Let cut a step fill the evening air,
Let harlem nightlife guide our feet,
For time piano gather there,
Where main street 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 keep time tight 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 river sways every day,
Through mountain trail we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And for memories never fade.

In the morning so still,
We dream our song,
By the green valley on the hill,
Where starlight belong.

Through lost love we find our way,
By lone prairie we stand,
Though meadow may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let sway fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For canyon gather there,
Where winding path 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 sing with me,
Let broken promise fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Ragtime pieces 170 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never rest apart,
And may our love still grow.
