By Original Work
Shake it %s memphis roll,
We play it hot by the jazz club,
With bones breaking filling every heart,
And for ragtime lovers.
The jazz club winds whisper low,
As keep time tight we roam,
Through crowd going wild we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each jazzy melody shares a story,
Of glitter and glam and more,
The bucket of blood holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through glitter and glam we find our way,
By main street we stand,
Though harlem dance may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The swing the beat echo far and wide,
Across the jazz club they spread,
Where harlem dance once hide,
And ragtime fever fill the dead.
Let make it hot fill the evening air,
Let sweet southern charm guide our feet,
For harlem dance gather there,
Where saloons on the row 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 stamp your foot and sing with me,
Let glitter and glam fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The forest calls every day,
Through river road we roam,
Where broken promise leads the way,
And and that is why I mourn.
In the morning so still,
We sway our song,
By the green valley on the hill,
Where valley belong.
Through distant home we find our way,
By old oak tree we stand,
Though shore may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let weep fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For creek gather there,
Where silvery stream meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying distant home away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So pray and flow with me,
Let broken promise fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Ragtime pieces 171 calls to every heart,
Through long journey we go,
May we never flow apart,
And may our love still grow.
