Lyrics The Darktown Strutters’ Ball - Carmichael, Matty Matlock’s All Stars

The Darktown Strutters’ Ball

I’ll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You better be ready about half past eight
Now dearie, don’t be late
I want to be there when the band starts playing
Remember when we get there, honey
The two-steps I’m goin' to have 'em all
Goin' to tear my blue suede shoes
When they play the «Jelly Roll Blues»
Tomorrow night, at the Darktown Strutter’s Ball
I’ll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You better be ready about half past eight
Now dearie, don’t be late
I want to be there when the band starts playing
Remember when we get there, honey
The two-steps I’m goin' to have 'em all
Goin' to tear my blue suede shoes
When they play the «Jelly Roll Blues»
Tomorrow night, at the Darktown Strutter’s Ball
