The Darktown Strutters’ Ball

Shelton Brooks.

Longer Version

midi

I’ll be down to get you in a taxi, honey,
You better be ready about half past eight,
Now dearie, don’t be late.
I want to be there when the
Band starts playing.

Remember, when we get there honey,
The two-steps, I’m goin’ to have them all.
Goin’ to dance out both my shoes
When they play the “Jelly Roll Blues.”

Tomorrow night at the
Darktown Strutters’ Ball.
