That lovin' rag,
that lovin' ragg
fills you with joy
or joyful jagg
It makes you glad,
you'll ne'er be sadd,
that lovin' lovin' Rag,
Your honey gal
close to your breast,
then dance the rag
you love the bestt
you'll never want
to stop that Lovin' Rag.

Oh lawdy, lawdy, lawdy, lawdy,
hear that tune,
I'll forget my home
and mother mighty soon.
Keep right on a raggin'
not a step I'll miss
I'll tell you babe
home ain't nothin' like this,
Cross your eyes my honey
and we'll glide along
I feel myself a slipping,
I don't mean no wrong;
Just put your arms around me
and we'll dance till morn
that lovin' lovin' Rag.

Hear that music softly play
I could dance all night and day
Lovin' Rag and bombershay
umph, umph, my babe hold tight,
I want no brass band playin' for me
No Gillmore or Sousa's Orchestree
The only article of harmony
is the lovin' lovin' Rag.

Hear that music softly play
I could dance all night and day
Lovin' Rag and bombershay
umph, umph, my babe hold tight,
I want no brass band playin' for me
No Gillmore or Sousa's Orchestree
The only article of harmony
is the lovin' lovin' Rag.

That lovin' rag,
that lovin' ragg
fills you with joy
or joyful jagg
It makes you glad,
you'll ne'er be sadd,
that lovin' lovin' Rag,
Your honey gal
close to your breast,
then dance the rag
you love the bestt
you'll never want

Oh lawdy, lawdy, lawdy, lawdy,
hear that tune,
I'll forget my home
and mother mighty soon.
Keep right on a raggin'
