The Dixieland Band - Jo Stafford[00:00:00]
Did you ever hear the story[00:00:13]
Of the Dixieland Band[00:00:14]
Let me tell your brother[00:00:16]
And the music was grand[00:00:17]
They had piano and a clarinet[00:00:20]
Only thing they needed[00:00:23]
Was a second cornet[00:00:24]
And that's what lead to the ruin[00:00:26]
The ruin of The Dixieland Band[00:00:29]
When the folks holler[00:00:33]
For the Maple Leaf Rag[00:00:34]
They would get to swinging[00:00:36]
But the trumpet would drag[00:00:37]
They had to keep him[00:00:40]
'Cause he played so sweet[00:00:41]
But they needed someone[00:00:43]
Who could give them a beat[00:00:44]
Someone who's born with the rhythm[00:00:46]
The rhythm of The Dixieland Band[00:00:49]
He'd play so sweetly[00:00:52]
'Stead and playing[00:00:59]
He'd play so sweetly[00:01:06]
'Stead and playing[00:01:12]
Sure enough he got them[00:01:19]
So they couldn't play right[00:01:21]
Finally he figged them[00:01:23]
On a Saturday night[00:01:24]
He hit a figgy that was off the chord[00:01:26]
Apoplexy got them[00:01:29]
And they went to the Lord[00:01:31]
And that's the pitiful story[00:01:33]
Story of the Dixieland Band[00:01:36]
Now they're up in heaven[00:01:39]
And they're happy at last[00:01:40]
'Cause they found a trumpet man[00:01:42]
Really can blast[00:01:44]
The way swings them is an awful shame[00:01:46]
He can really do it[00:01:49]
Gabriel is his name[00:01:50]
And now folks here is a sample[00:01:53]
Listen to The Dixieland Band[00:01:55]
If you hear a trumpet start to play[00:02:26]
Don't you be afraid it's the Judgement Day[00:02:29]
'Cause it's just Mister Gabriel sounding his A[00:02:32]
And The Dixieland Band is fixing to play[00:02:39]
