The Darktown Strutters Ball

I'll be there to get you in a taxi, honey

Better be ready by half past eight

Now baby don't be late

I wanna be there when the band starts playing

Remember when we get there honey

New steps I'm gonna have them all

I'm gonna dance out of both my shoes

When they play those general blues

Tomorrow night at the darktown strutters' ball

I'll be there to get you in a taxi, honey

Better be ready by half past eight

Now baby don't be late

I wanna be there when the band starts playing

Remember when we get there honey

New steps I'm gonna have them all

I'm gonna dance out of both my shoes

When they play those general blues

Tomorrow night at the darktown strutters' ball
