I've nothing to do till tomorrow,
you've nothing to do for today,
So let's spend the time
with music sublime
I'm willing to show you the way.
Let's jump in a taxi or street car,
I promise it won't take us long,
we'll know that we're there
when we hear the air
of one tuneful raggy old song.

Beautiful rag of old Bohemia
where ev'ry one's ev'ry one's friend,
The Rag of the place
where the sun hides his face
so fun can go on without end.
When you're feeling lonely
and minutes slowly drag
Come to the Land of Bohemia
and hear the Bohemia Rag.

Beautiful rag of old Bohemia
where ev'ry one's ev'ry one's friend,
The Rag of the place
where the sun hides his face
so fun can go on without end.
When you're feeling lonely
and minutes slowly drag
Come to the Land of Bohemia
and hear the Bohemia Rag.

The circus is on a vacation,
I don't care to go to a show,
so what's to be done?
I'm looking for fun,
I guess you know where we must go.
It's never too early for starting,
it's never too late to begin,
let's look for the boys
and girls with the noise
who sing till night lets the day in.

Beautiful rag of old Bohemia
where ev'ry one's ev'ry one's friend,
The Rag of the place
where the sun hides his face
so fun can go on without end.
When you're feeling lonely
and minutes slowly drag
Come to the Land of Bohemia
and hear the Bohemia Rag.

Beautiful rag of old Bohemia
where ev'ry one's ev'ry one's friend,
The Rag of the place
where the sun hides his face
so fun can go on without end.
When you're feeling lonely
and minutes slowly drag
Come to the Land of Bohemia
and hear the Bohemia Rag.
