Lyrics
The real american folk song
Is rag.
A mental jag.
A rhythmic tonic for the chronic blues.
The critics call it a "joke song",
But now,
They've changed their tune, and they like it,
Somehow.
For its inoculated
With a syncopated
Sort of meter,
Sweeter,
Than a classic strain.
Boy, you can't remain
Still or quiet,
For it's a riot.
the real american folk song
Is like a fountain of youth:
You taste
And it elates you
And then,
Invigorates you,
The real american folk song
Master stroke song,
Is a rag
(Yodeling)
The real american folk song,
is like a fountain of youth:
You taste
And it elates you
And then,
Invigorates you
The real american folk song
(Yodeling)
The real american folk song
(Yodeling)
The real american folk song
Is
Rag
What a rag!
