| Lyrics: | Full title: "Stop That Rag (Keep On Playing, Honey)"]
[1st verse:]
Do my ears
deceive me or am I goin' mad?
Honey, please believe me, that my hearin' ain't bad
But
something seems to tell me that I'm list'nin' to Rag
I've been suspectin' so all
night
Tunes I've heard befo' was only music what ain't
Melody like this is what an artist
can't paint
Go get me some ammonia 'cause I fear I must faint
I'm suffocating with
delight
[chorus:]
Stop dat rag, keep on playin', honey
Stop dat rag, hear me
prayin', honey
Run away, I feel that I must be alone
But don't you dare to leave me, 'till
the cows come home
Cease dat strain, please repeat it, honey
Once again, and I'll meet it,
honey
Oh, I'm sad
No, I'm glad
Stop dat rag, I'm sayin'
I mean keep on
playin'
Don't you dare to stop dat rag
[2nd verse:]
Call in some physician,
'cause I feel that I'm ill
Somehow or another, hon', my feet won't keep still
Please
request that leaderman to keep a-playin' till
I cry enough, enough some more
Hon, I'll
never forgive you, just for takin' me here
Take me miles and miles away from here
anywhere
Just raise a hand to move me, mister man if you dare
I'm satisfied to die right
now |
