(The) Boston Rag Lyrics

Any news was good news, and the feeling was bad at home
I was out of my mind and you were on the phone
Lonnie was the kingpin back in nineteen sixty five
I was singing this song when Lonnie came alive

Bring back the Boston Rag,
Tell all your buddies that it aint no drag
Bring back the Boston Rag

You were Lady Bayside, there was nothing that I could do
So I pointed my car down Seventh Avenue
Lonnie swept the playroom and he swallowed up all he found
It was fourty eight hours till Lonnie came around

[Chorus]
[Chorus and fade]
