Alexander's Ragtime Band - Sonny Stitt, Don Patterson

Come on and hear

Come on and hear

Alexander’s ragtime band

Come on and hear

Come on and hear

About the best band in the land

They can play a bugle call like you never heard before

So natural that you’ll want to go to war

That’s just the bestest band what am

Oh 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 want to hear the Swanee River

Played in ragtime

Come on and hear

Come on and hear

Alexander’s Ragtime Band

Come on and hear

Come on and hear

Alexander’s ragtime band

Come on and hear

Come on and hear

About 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

Oh my 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 the Swanee River

Played in ragtime

Come on and hear

Come on and hear

Alexander’s Ragtime Band

Alexander’s Ragtime Band!
