My daddy played the flattop
My mother loved to dance
I'll get a girl like her
If I ever get the chance
Ev'ry girl I'd meet
They just leave me sick and sad
They're steppin' all over my rag
Been all around this country
Lookin' for a girl
'Cause if you wanna dance
You need a partner in this world
But they just break my heart
Before I even drop my bags
And they're steppin' all over my rag
I met a preacher's daughter
Who never heard the word
She'd fallen out of grace
She was a pretty little bird
She did the Chi-town shimmy
And she did the Dixie Drag
But she stepped all over my rag
I had a girl in Frisco
She wore a dress of red
I gave her all my money
She took me home to bed
But the only dance she did
Was the San Francisco Shag
Then she stepped all over my rag
My mother loved to dance
I'll get a girl like her
If I ever get the chance
Ev'ry girl I'd meet
They just leave me sick and sad
They're steppin' all over my rag
Been all around this country
Lookin' for a girl
'Cause if you wanna dance
You need a partner in this world
But they just break my heart
Before I even drop my bags
And they're steppin' all over my rag
I met a preacher's daughter
Who never heard the word
She'd fallen out of grace
She was a pretty little bird
She did the Chi-town shimmy
And she did the Dixie Drag
But she stepped all over my rag
I had a girl in Frisco
She wore a dress of red
I gave her all my money
She took me home to bed
But the only dance she did
Was the San Francisco Shag
Then she stepped all over my rag
