[Verse 1] Step through the door, the room takes flight Shoes on the floor keep time tonight Hands in the air, hats all askew Laugh like the sky just learned to move [Pre-Chorus] Spin to the left, slide to the right Every heart is wound up tight Trumpets call and tables shake This old town is wide awake [Chorus] Runaway ragtime night, night, night Feet like sparks in golden light Clap your hands and hold on fast We were born to make joy last Runaway ragtime night, night, night Kiss the moon and swing just right Round we go till morning sings Dancing wild on borrowed wings [Verse 2] Buttons flash, suspenders sway Trouble packed and sent away Skirts all whirl, jackets fly Grins so big they crowd the sky [Bridge] Hey now, shake the dust away Turn the dark to holiday Hey now, stamp and shout hooray We own every tick today [Final Chorus] Runaway ragtime night, night, night Feet like sparks in golden light Clap your hands and hold on fast We were born to make joy last Runaway ragtime night, night, night Kiss the moon and swing just right Round we go till morning sings Dancing wild on borrowed wings
