That Ragtime Harmony Strain 1914

Down in Darktown
in that great town
lives a ragtime coon.
Lovin' is his middle name,
he has often played the game,
loves by moonlight,
loves by day light,
any time at all,
He starts spoonin'
while a croonin'
to some baby doll.

That ragtime harmony strain,
sweet as lover's lane,
When the music plays
you just get the craze,
squeeze your lovin' dolly
in a thousand ways,
that ragtime harmony strain,
play it once again,
you'll start lovin'
turtle dovin'
to that ragtime harmony strain.

That ragtime harmony strain,
sweet as lover's lane,
When the music plays
you just get the craze,
squeeze your lovin' dolly
in a thousand ways,
that ragtime harmony strain,
play it once again,
you'll start lovin'
turtle dovin'
to that ragtime harmony strain.

That big fellow,
plays a 'cello,
in a music hall,
spoony airs he sings so great,
boys with sweethearts stay there late,
there is ragtime,
and some dragtime,
mellow music Oh!
All a kissin'
dearie listen,
while he's singin' low.

That ragtime harmony strain,
sweet as lover's lane,
When the music plays
you just get the craze,
squeeze your lovin' dolly
in a thousand ways,
that ragtime harmony strain,
play it once again,
you'll start lovin'
turtle dovin'
to that ragtime harmony strain.

That ragtime harmony strain,
sweet as lover's lane,
When the music plays
you just get the craze,
squeeze your lovin' dolly
in a thousand ways,
that ragtime harmony strain,
play it once again,
you'll start lovin'
turtle dovin'
to that ragtime harmony strain.
