That Cuddlin' Rag 1909

A spoony rag
the band is playing,
come on now kid,
don't be delayin'
Baby mine, right now's the time,
to show you love this ever lovin' child,
Step down the line
with style so nifty,
that coony glide
we'll dance so shifty,
Angel cake, you're out of sight,
Hold your sweetness good and tight,
there are some like you, hon'
Come on, one, two, three, Go!

All aboard for some lovin' time, speeling,
Roll those eyes, kiddo,
up to the ceiling,
Candy Doll, with a lovey dove feelin'
O'er the floor come glide,
babe, slide, babe:
Side to side with a dreamy like motion
sailing on a big ragatime ocean,
Oh, you band, play a nice slow drag,
When we do that cuddlin' rag.

All aboard for some lovin' time, speeling,
Roll those eyes, kiddo,
up to the ceiling,
Candy Doll, with a lovey dove feelin'
O'er the floor come glide,
babe, slide, babe:
Side to side with a dreamy like motion
sailing on a big ragatime ocean,
Oh, you band, play a nice slow drag,
When we do that cuddlin' rag.

That coony southern style of dancing,
that spoony motion so entrancing,
Sweetie dear, with you so near,
just puts me in a hypnotizin' dream,
and with those soft sweet longing sighs, babe,
When you look up into my eyes, babe,
to that ragtime music gay,
then I want to glide away,
and dance till I drop, kid,
so don't let me stop, Kid.

All aboard for some lovin' time, speeling,
Roll those eyes, kiddo,
up to the ceiling,
Candy Doll, with a lovey dove feelin'
O'er the floor come glide,
babe, slide, babe:
Side to side with a dreamy like motion
sailing on a big ragatime ocean,
Oh, you band, play a nice slow drag,
When we do that cuddlin' rag.

All aboard for some lovin' time, speeling,
Roll those eyes, kiddo,
up to the ceiling,
Candy Doll, with a lovey dove feelin'
O'er the floor come glide,
babe, slide, babe:
Side to side with a dreamy like motion
sailing on a big ragatime ocean,
Oh, you band, play a nice slow drag,
When we do that cuddlin' rag.
