[Verse 1]
Come along, get ready, wear your brand, brand-new gown
There's gonna be a meetin' in this good, good old town
Where you know everybody, and they all know you
And you got a jazz band just to drive away your blues
[Chorus]
When you hear that music start to play
Tap your feet, start to step and sway
When you get that rhythm, you're gonna shout and say
There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight
My baby, when you hear those bells go ding-a-ling
All join 'round and gayly you must sing
And when the verse is through in the chorus all join in
There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight
[Trumpet Solo]
[Saxophone Solo]
[Verse 2]
There'll be fun for everybody in this good, good old town
Our girls will hug and kiss you, and they'll never let you down
There's my handsome sweetie pie, and we're gonna wed
And I hugged and kissed him, and then to him I said
[Chorus]
"Please, oh, please, oh, do not let me fall
You are mine, and I love you best of all
And you must be my man, or I'll have no man at all"
There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight
