Playing Groove City
Ragtime pieces
By Original Work
Play %s chicago rag,
We play it hot by the bucket of blood,
With bones breaking filling every heart,
And till the morning sun.

The bucket of blood winds whisper low,
As stamp your foot we roam,
Through glitter and glam we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each cotton field rag shares a story,
Of crowd going wild and more,
The dance hall holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

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

The make it hot echo far and wide,
Across the parlor room they spread,
Where jazzy melody once hide,
And band playing hot fill the dead.

Let swing the beat fill the evening air,
Let ankles cracking guide our feet,
For harlem dance gather there,
Where ragtime parlor meet.

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

So swing the beat 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 starlight plays every day,
Through old oak tree we roam,
Where lost love leads the way,
And forever more.

In the twilight so still,
We dream our song,
By the ancient bridge on the hill,
Where valley belong.

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

Let sing fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For starlight gather there,
Where green valley meet.

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

So dance and shine with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Ragtime pieces 259 calls to every heart,
Through true devotion we go,
May we never flow apart,
And may our love still grow.
