(originally by Irving Berlin)
Come on along
Come on along
To Alexander's ragtime band
Come on along
Come on along
It's the best band in my land
They can play a bugle call like you never heard before
It's so natural that you want to go to war
That's the bestest band what am, honey lamb
Come on along
Come on along
Let me take you by the hand
To the man
To the man
The leader of the band
And if you want to hear the Swanee River played in ragtime
Come on along
Come on along
To Alexander's ragtime band
