Creepy 1922

Jazz and syncopation
fill the air,
raggy draggy music ev'rywhere.
You can find 'em dancin' prancin'
morning night and noon,
watch 'em hop, never stop,
when they hear a tune;
That's the reason I can understand
jazz is still the king
in ev'ry land.
When they pass away
ev'ry dancing hound will say:
WOW!

and soon they're
Creepin' night and day,
in a creepy way
down below, where all
the little devils play
ev'ry step is hot,
like a pepper pot,
there's no chance
to get away. Say!
When they step on coal,
then they pay the toll
soon you'll see
the tears in ev'rybody's eyes
while they're getting burned,
here's the lesson learned:
Dance the waltz
and then you'll land in Paradise.

If the devil takes you by the hand
blame it on the leader of the band.
If you go to well!
With the others you can yell
Wow! Wow! Wow! Some dance!
