Tekst piosenki
[PEOPLE OF HARLEM]
His name was Coalhouse Walker
[MAN 1]
Was a native of St. Louis some years before
[WOMAN 1]
When he heard the music of old Scott Joplin
[MAN 2]
In St. Louis
[WOMAN 2]
Bought himself some piano lessons
Working as a stevedore
[MAN 3]
Here was a music
That truly inspired him
[LADIES]
Dancers required him
[MEN]
Club owners hired him
[PEOPLE OF HARLEM]
The strivers of Harlem
Respected and admired him
[MAN 4]
For turning Harlem into art
[COALHOUSE]
But Coalhouse had a broken heart...
The Good Lord looked down, saw me lonely and loveless
And thought to Himself: "Enough is enough. I'm putting
Sarah in Coalhouse's life."
And he did
This wasn't a woman. This was an angel, a gift of God
Coalhouse loved this woman, but not wisely and not
Too well. She left me without a word or trace. There was
No pity for me
[SARAH' S FRIEND]
None whatsoever, Coalhouse
[COALHOUSE]
Now she is haunting me
Just like a melody-
The only song I seem to know
Sarah, my life has changed
Sarah, I miss you so
Sarah, I did you wrong
Sarah, where did you go?
And then this morning, the miracle happened. I found
Out where she is and I'm going to do my damnedest to
See she takes me back. Ladies and gentlemen, the
Gettin' Ready Rag!
