Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

I'll be there to get you in a taxi, honey,
better be ready 'bout half past eight.

Now baby, don't be late,
I wanna be there when the band starts playing.

Remember when we get there, honey,
two step I'm gonna have them all.

Gonna dance out the boot of my shoes,
when they're playin' those jelly roll blues
tomorrow night at the Darktown Strutters' ball.

I'll be there to get you in a taxi, honey,
better be ready 'bout half past eight.

Now baby, don't be late,
I wanna be there when the band starts playing.

Remember when we get there, honey,
two step I'm gonna have them all.

Gonna dance out the boot of my shoes,
when they're playin' those jelly roll blues
tomorrow night at the Darktown Strutters' ball.
