LaVern Baker - There'll Be a Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight lyrics

Come along, get ready, wear your brand
Brand-new gown
There's gonna be a meetin' in this good
Good old town where you know everybody
And they all know you
And you got a jazz band just
To drive away your blues

When you hear that music start to play
Tap your feet, start to step and sway
When you get that rhythm
You're gonna shout and say
There'll be a hot time in
The old town tonight my baby
When you hear those bells go ding-a-ling
All join 'round and gayly you must sing
And when the verse is through in
The chorus all join in
There'll be a hot time in
The old town tonight

There'll be fun for everybody in this good
Good old town
Our girls will hug and kiss you
And they'll never let you down
There's my handsome sweetie pie
And we're gonna wed
And I hugged and kissed him
And then to him I said

"Please, oh, please, oh, do not let me fall
You are mine, and I love you best of all
And you must be my man
Or I'll have no man at all"
There'll be a hot time in
The old town tonight
