about

Music and Lyrics By Dan Frechette. Violin arrangements by Laurel Thomsen.

lyrics

Ragtime baby won't you sing for me
Ragtime baby won't you sing for me
I've been blue and busted out on bluegrass street

Ragtime woman I'm cooked and solid gone
Ragtime woman left me here to sing a song
She's gotta hit me with progress
hit me with a bill
when I pull out my money she'll go straight for the kill

I got 20 years on the kids you'll kiss for free
I got open holes in the legs of my old blue jeans
I can't go on living like this
adding to the list everyday of fun I've missed

She'll pull my lucky card and we'll hit the town
there's lonely times whether or not you're settled down
better to be sane
better to be free
don't need no tedious company
