1st verse:]

Talk of yo' looney coons

Talk of yo' spoony coons

Lover of coony tunes

Jackson was the leader of a big brass band

Understand

While at a ball one night

Miss Lucinda Morgan White

Yelled out with all her might

When he started playing some familiar tune

She just cried with delight



[chorus:]

If you love yo' babe, play that tune for me

Just because I feel so funny

Honey I don't care for money

I'm goin' crazy, that rag's a daisy

I just can't make my feeling behave

Play that tune again

Mighty soon again

Honey, don't you start to scold

I'm feeling like a two year old

When I hear that strain

Gwine to cry again

Play me some Wild Cherry Rag



[2nd verse:]

Talk of yo' wedding chimes

Talk of yo' champagne wines

Talk of yo' scand'lous times

Mister Jackson married Miss Lucinda White

Sunday night

Just as the knot was tied

Parson had blessed the bride

Jackson stood by her side

When the music played that lovin' weddin' march

Miss Lucinda just cried



[2nd chorus:]

If you love yo' babe, play that tune for me

No I'm not a blowin' hon but

I feel like goin' some

I'm goin' crazy that rag's a daisy

I just can't make my feeling behave

Play that tune again

Mighty soon again

Oh, you seven come eleven!

Hon I'm goin' straight to heav'n

When I hear that strain

Gwine to cry again

Play me some Wild Cherry Rag
