Better be ready about half past eight
Ooh honey don't be late
I'll be there when the band starts swingin'
Remember when we get there honey

Quiet tomorrow night at the darktown strutter's bell

Makin' preparations for the strutter's ball

Gotta be ready about half past eight
Ooh honey don't be late
Be there when the bands are swingin'

Two steps we're gonna have 'em all
Take off both of our shoes
