[Verse 1]
I'll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You'd better be ready around a-half past eight
Ah baby don't be late, I want to be there when the band starts, honey
Well, just remember when we get there honey
Two steps gonna handle them all
Dance with both my shoes when they play the jelly roll blues
Tomorrow night at the darktown strutter's ball

[Verse 2]
Well, I'll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You'd better be ready around half past eight
Ah, baby, don't be late, I want to be there when the band starts, honey
Just remember when we get there honey
Two, two steps and gonna handle them all
Dance off both my shoes when they play the jelly roll blues
Tomorrow night at the darktown strutter's ball

[Verse 3]
I'll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You'd better be ready around half past eight
Ah, baby, don't be late, I want to be there when the band starts, honey
Just remember when we get there, honey
Two steps gonna handle them all
I'm gonna dance off both of my shoes when they play the jelly roll blues
Tomorrow night at the darktown strutter's ball
