Crazy Rhythm
Artist: Whispering Jack Smith, The New Mayfair Dance Orchestra, Carroll Gibbons
Crazy rhythm, here's the doorway
I'll go my way, you'll go your way
Crazy rhythm, from now on we're through
Here is where we have a showdown
I'm too high hat, you're too lowdown
Crazy rhythm, here's goodbye to you
They say that when a highbrow meets a lowbrow
Walking along Broadway
Soon the highbrow, he has no brow
Ain't it a shame, and you're to blame
What's the use of prohibition
You produce the same condition
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too
I feel like the Emperor Nero when Rome was a very hot town
Father Knickerbocker, you'll have to forgive me, I play while your city burns down
Through all its night life I fiddle away
It's not the right life, but think of the pay!
Some day I will bid it goodbye, I'll put my fiddle away and I'll say:
Crazy rhythm, here's the doorway
I'll go my way, you'll go your way
Crazy rhythm, from now on we're through
Here is where we have a showdown
You see, I'm too high hat, you're too lowdown
Crazy rhythm, here's goodbye to you
They say that when a highbrow meets a lowbrow
Walking along Broadway
Soon the highbrow, he has no brow
Ain't it a shame, well you're to blame
What's the use of prohibition
You produce the same condition
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too
Crazy rhythm, here's the doorway
I'll go my way, you'll go your way
Crazy rhythm, from now on we're through (absolutely is)
Here is where we have a showdown
I'm too high hat, you're too lowdown
Crazy rhythm, here's goodbye to you
They say that when a highbrow meets a lowbrow
Walking along Broadway
Soon the highbrow, he has no brow
Ain't it a shame, and you're to blame
What's the use of prohibition
You produce the same condition
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too
