Alexander's Ragtime Band

(Verse)

Oh my honey, oh my honey

Better hurry, let's meander

Ain't you goin', ain't you goin'

To the leader man

The ragged meter man

Oh my honey, oh my honey

Let me take you to Alexander's grandstand, grandstand

Ain't you comin' along?

(Chorus)

Come on and hear, come on and hear

Alexander's ragtime band

Come on and hear, come on and hear

It's the best band in the land!

They can play a bugle call like you never heard before

So natural that you want to go to war--

That's just the bestest band what am, honey lamb!

Come on along, come on along

Let me take you by the hand

Up to the man, up to the man

Who's the leader of the band

And if you want to hear the Swanee River played in ragtime

Come on and hear, come on and hear

Alexander's ragtime band!
