THE BOSTON RAG Any news was good news and the feeling was bad at home I was out of my mind and you were on the phone Lonnie was the kingpin back in nineteen sixty five I was singing this song when Lonnie came alive Bring back the Boston Rag Tell all your buddies that it aint no drag Bring back the Boston Rag You were Lady Bayside, there was nothing that I could do So I pointed my car down Seventh Avenue Lonnie swept the playroom and he swallowed up all he found It was fourty eight hours till Lonnie came around [Chorus] [Chorus and fade]
