Darktown Strutters' Ball Lyrics

Domino Fats Darktown Strutters' Ball

(center text)

Ill be there to get you in a taxi, honey
Better be ready by half past eight
Now baby dont be late
I wanna be there when the band starts playing

Remember when we get there honey
New steps Im gonna have them all
Im gonna dance out of both my shoes
When they play those general blues
Tomorrow night at the darktown strutters ball

instrumental interlude

Ill be there to get you in a taxi, honey
Better be ready by half past eight
Now baby dont be late
I wanna be there when the band starts playing

Remember when we get there honey
New steps Im gonna have them all
Im gonna dance out of both my shoes
When they play those general blues
Tomorrow night at the darktown strutters ball
