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've 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.
Up to the man, Up to the man
Who's 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
Alexander's ragtime band!!
