Come on and hear
Come on and hear
Alexander's ragtime band

Come on and hear
Come on and hear
It's 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
That's just the best-est band, what am
Oh, my honey lamb

Come on along
Come on along
Let me take you by the hand

Up to the man
Up to the man
Who's the leader of the band

And if you care to hear
The Swanee River played in ragtime

Come on and hear
Come on and hear
Alexander's ragtime band

Come on and hear
Come on and hear
Alexander's modern band

Come on and hear
Come on and hear
It's the best band in the land

They can boo-ba-doo-da-doo-da-doo-doo-doo

That's just the best-est band, what am
Oh, my honey lamb

Come on along
Come on along
Let me take you by the hand

Up to the man
Up to the man
Who's the leader of the band

And if you care to hear
The Swanee River played in cool time

Or if you wanna hear
The Swanee River played in the ragtime

Come on and hear
Come on and hear
Alexander's ragtime band

Alexander's ragtime band
