Lyrics It's a Raggy Waltz (with Dave Brubeck) [Live] - Carmen McRae

It′s a raggy waltz, a raggy waltz, a raggy waltz
That I'm gonna dance with you;
Now you′ve heard this very funny beat,
Let me see if you can feel it in your feet!
Yeah, you got it, start in to swing,
Just forget everything,
Raggy waltzin' with me!
It's not a waltz, so Viennese
Johann Strauss could never please!
It′s a raggy waltz, a raggy waltz, a raggy waltz
And no other dance will do!
And when the dance is through
You′re gonna say,
"Never stop romancin', dancin′ in this way
Makes me love ya!".
Out on the floor
You'll be askin′ for more
Raggy waltzin' with me!
It′s not a waltz, so Viennese
Johann Strauss could never please!
It's a raggy waltz, a raggy waltz, a raggy waltz
And no other dance will do!
And when the dance is through
You're gonna say,
"Never stop romancin′, dancin′ in this way
Makes me love ya!".
Out on the floor
You'll be askin′ for more
Raggy waltzin' with me!
Out on the floor
You′ll be askin' for more
Raggy waltzin′ with me!
