Tom Cat Rag Lyrics

Everybody 'bout nine o'clock
The piano started playing at nine o'clock
Plain man, high class--upper class
And the Italian man
[?] and play some rag
He plays a piece that goes like this:

Ya, ya, aha
[?] havin' a home
Well, he's got to play that rag
Another beat boys

My daddy, my mammy, started raggin' in the kitchen
[East-land Sammy?] out to switchin'
Tom cat jumped on my, daddy's back
Daddy felt good and start to ball in the jive
Hands on the floor, his thighs is kicking
The whole [grain?] family
He throw'ed his hands out the window, holla'd '[?]'
Mamma started eagle rocking 'round the floor
When that great piano, played that ragtime melody
That melody, boys

My daddy, my mammy, started raggin' in the kitchen
[East-land Sammy?] out to switchin'
Tom cat jumped on my, daddy's back
Daddy felt good and start to ball in the jive
Hands on the floor, his thighs is kicking
The whole [grain?] family
He throw'ed his hands out the window, holla'd '[?]'
Mamma started eagle rocking 'round the floor
When that great piano, played that ragtime melody!
That melody
