Now we goin' on one of them old Seaboard stomps

Nobody don't know how much we enjoy this dance

They had a boy there they called, Piano Charles

He'd say, "Blake!" I said, "What you want, boy?"

He said, "Come over here, I want to hear you, I wanna let you hear me how to, how I make this Seaboard train come on down the line on the piano."

I said, "Now I'm gonna come and hear how you do that, then."

Now who wouldn't shake that thing?

He had a cornet player there, and when he started to playin' that cornet, it was too bad, Jim!

That's when I lost my head!

That's all--tellin' you the truth!

Here's the way that cornet player played

Now they had a trombone player there, he just won't quit

Here's the way he played his trombone

That's the time I had to lose my head, when he done that

Hear the saxophone!

I think I'm gonna call this last number, now
