Lyrics:

I'll be down to get you in a taxi, honey.
You'd better be ready 'bout half past eight.
Now baby, don't be late.
I wanna be there when the band starts playing.
Remember, when we get there, honey,
The two steps, I'm gonna have them all.
I'm gonna dance out both of my shoes
When they play those "Jelly Roll Blues,"
Tomorrow night at the Darktown Strutters' Ball.
