Lyrics

I feel like the Emperor Nero when Rome was a very hot town Father Knickerbocker, forgive me, I play while your city burns down Through all its night life I fiddle away It's not the right life, but think of the pay Someday I will bid it goodbye, I'll put my fiddle away and I'll say Crazy rhythm here's the doorway I'll go my way, you'll go your way Crazy rhythm from now on we're through Here is where we have a showdown I'm too high-hat, you're too low-down Crazy rhythm here's goodbye to you They say that when a high-brow meets a low-brow walking along Broadway Soon the high-brow, he has no brow Ain't it a shame, and you're to blame What's the use of Prohibition? You produce the same condition Crazy rhythm I've gone crazy, too Ev'ry Greek, Each Turk and each Latin, the Russians and Prussians as well When they seek the lure of Manhattan, are sure to come under your spell Their native folksongs they soon throw away Those Harlem smoke songs, they soon learn to play Can't you fall for Carnegie Hall, Oh Danny, call it a day and we'll say Crazy rhythm here's the doorway I'll go my way, you'll go your way Crazy rhythm from now on we're through Here is where we have a showdown I'm too high-hat, you're too low-down Crazy rhythm here's goodbye to you They say that when a high-brow meets a low-brow walking along Broadway Soon the high-brow, he has no brow Ain't it a shame, and you're to blame What's the use of Prohibition? You produce the same condition Crazy rhythm I've gone crazy, too.
