Lyrics

Come on and hear, come on and hear Alexander's Ragtime Band Come on and hear, come on and hear The best band in the land They can play a bugle call Like you never heard before So natural that you want to go to war It's just the bestest band whatever Honey Lamb Come on along, come on along Let me take you by the hand To meet the man, to meet the man Who's the leader of the band And if you want to hear that Swanee River Played in a ragtime Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear that Alexander's Ragtime Band (Alexander's Band) Come on along, come on along Let me take you by the hand To meet the man, to meet the man Who's the leader of the band And if you want to hear that Swanee River Played in a ragtime Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear (come on and hear) Come on and hear that Alexander's Ragtime Band (Alexander's Band)
