Alexander's Band is Back in Dixieland/ music by Albert Gumble; words by Jack Yellen

              Lyrics:
First verse
Where's that music comin' from Listen to that rumtumtum Come a little nearer Now it's gettin' clearer Aint they playin' some That's what I call music sweet Puts the tickle in your feet I know from the metre there's a certain leader Comin' down the street
Chorus
Here comes Ragtime Alexander Dixie's famous band commander No more worry no more blues Ev'rybody run a long and get your dancin' shoes When it comes to syncopation That's the best band in creation Oh boy what a time ‘Cross the Mason Dixon line Alexander's Band is back in Dixie land Here comes Ragtime Alexander Dixie's famous band commander No more worry no more blues Ev'rybody run a long and get your dancin' shoes When it comes to syncopation That's the best band in creation Oh boy what a time ‘Cross the Mason Dixon line Alexander's Band is back in Dixie land
Second verse
Now wwe'll have some harmonies Floatin' on the evenin' breeze When the stream boat loaders And the cotton toters Start their jubilees I’ll be down to ev’ry one Just as quick as I can run With my lovin’ baby Let me tell you maybe I won’t have some fun




(Chorus)
