Milenberg Joys - 1925

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 23 Oct 2001

Now there's a tune
a brand new tune
'riginated down in Dixieland.
Eliza Green, the shimmie queen,
says that it is just grand
and ev'ry night with all her might
she does a dance that's hard to beat
the way she syncopates
don't leave nothing out
you should hear this baby shout

Rock my soul with the Milenberg Joys
[spoken]: stomp it
Rock my soul with the Milenberg Joys.
Play 'em daddy, don't refuse,
separate me from the weary blues
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Sweet boy
syncopate your mama all night long
with that Dixieland strain
[spoken]: turn it on
Play it down
then do it again
[spoken]: won't be long now
Ev'ry time I hear that tune
good luck says I'll be with you soon
that's just why
I've got the Milenberg Joys.

Rock my soul with the Milenberg Joys
[spoken]: stomp it
Rock my soul with the Milenberg Joys.
Play 'em daddy, don't refuse,
separate me from the weary blues
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Sweet boy
syncopate your mama all night long
with that Dixieland strain
[spoken]: turn it on
Play it down
then do it again
[spoken]: won't be long now
Ev'ry time I hear that tune
good luck says I'll be with you soon
that's just why
I've got the Milenberg Joys.
