Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
Darktown Strutter Ball

The Darktown Strutter' Ball

The Darktown Strutter' Ball
(Shelton Brooks)

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 'em all
Goin' to dance out both my shoes
When they play the "Jelly Roll Blues"
Tomorrow night at the Darktown Strutters' Ball....
