Songtexte Alexander's Ragtime Band - Johnny Mercer , The Pied Pipers

Oh my honey, oh my honey
Better hurry, and 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, brass band
Ain't you comin' along?

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
To the man, to the man
Who's the leader of the band
And if you care to hear the Swanee River played in ragtime
Come on and hear, come on and hear
Alexander's ragtime band!

Come along and hear, come along and hear
Come on and hear, come on and hear
Come on along and hear the ragtime band!

Hey, come on and hear
Alexander's ragtime band
Come 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
That's just the bestest band what am, honey lamb
Come on along, come on along
Let me take you by the hand
To the man, up to the man
Who's the leader of the band
And if you care to hear the Swanee River, ooh
Played in ragtime
Come on along
Come on along
It's Alexander's ragtime band!
