Oh my honey, oh my honey,
Better hurry and let's meander;
Aren't you goin', Aren't you goin',
To the leader man, ragged meter man?
Oh my honey, oh my honey,
Let me take you to Alexander's
Grand stand, brass band,
Aren't you comin' along?
Come on and hear, come on and hear Alexander's Ragtime Band;
Come on and hear, come on and hear 'bout the best band in the land!
They can play a bugle call like you never heard before,
So natural that you wanna go to war.
That's just the bestest band what am, oh 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 care to hear the Swanee River played in ragtime
Come on and hear (come on and hear), come on and hear (come
on and hear)
Alexander's Ragtime Band!
Come on and hear (come on and hear), come on and hear (come
on and hear)
Alexander's Ragtime Band.
Come on and hear (well here I come), come on and hear (I'm
standin' right here)
It's the best band in the land!
They can play a bugle call like you never heard before (whistle)-
That's just the bestest band what am, oh Honey Lamb!
Come on along (come on along), come on along (come on along),
Let me take you by the hand (here's my lilywhites).
Up to the man (the mighty man), I'm talkin' 'bout the man
Mmm, the leader of the band
And if you care to hear that Swanee River played in ragtime
Come on and hear (come on and hear), come on and hear (come
on and hear)
Alexander's Ragtime Band
