Текст песни Rhythm On The River - Bing Crosby

When you hear a real hepcat
Take a chorus in b-flat
That's the rhythm on the river
You know what that means
He comes in New Orleans

When you hear a drummer rhyme
And the rimshot brakes too high
That's the rhythm on the river
Can't mistake that beat
He comes in Basin Street

How do you like a bugle call rag
Played as a waltz or a Dixieland shag
I'll take the words out of your mouth
You've got to play it the same of the South

In New York or any town
When the band swing is out low down
That's the rhythm on the river
Not the Hudson bud, just Mississippi mud

When you hear that best hepcat
Grab a chorus in b-flat
That's the rhythm on the river
Are you digin' what that means
He comes in New Orleans

When a drummer works out on his old high hat
And the tone comes out real fast
That's the rhythm on the river
Can't mistake that beat
He comes in Basin Street

Now how do you like a bugle call rag
You like played as a waltz or a Dixieland shag
I'll take the words right out of your mouth
You've got to play it the same of the South

In New York's folks can't split lips or any town
When the bands swing is out low down
That's the rhythm on the river
Not the Hudson bud, just Mississippi mud
