Praised be the ragtime band
Praised be the rambler's thumb
Praised be the mislaid plans
Praised be the flood if it comes
Praised be the fat and lye
Praised be the worn-out chair
Praised be the wheat and rye
Praised be the spiral stair
Praised be the fallow hill
Praised be the loner's sigh
Praised be the drunkard's will
Praised be the laugh lines
Praised be the flaunted wound
Praised be the letter sent
Praised be the next new moon
Praised be the dove's lament
They asked the poet once,
Do you believe in miracles?
And he did reply with this
That's all there is.
Praised be the ragtime band
Praised be our mislaid plans
My eyes are dry and they are open
I keep my grief in my hands
Praised be the ragtime band
Praised be the ramblers thumb
Praised be the mislaid plans
Praised be the flood if it comes
Praised be the flood if it comes
Praised be the flood if it comes
Praised be the flood if it comes
Praised be the ragtime band
Praised be the mislaid plans
My eyes are dry and they are open
I keep my grief in my hands
I keep my grief in my hands
I keep my grief in my hands
I keep my grief in my hands
Praised be the ragtime band
Praised be the ragtime band
Praised be the ragtime band
Praised be the ragtime band
