[00:19.46]You've heard all about your raggy melody
[00:22.51]Everything from opera down to harmony
[00:25.64]But I've a little song that I will sing to you
[00:28.40]It's gonna win you through and through
[00:31.96]There ain't much to the words but the music is grand
[00:34.90]And you'll be a-singing it to beat the band
[00:38.21]You've heard of the tisket and tasket it's true
[00:41.05]But give a little listen to this will you?
[00:42.92]Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da
[00:46.43]Jing, Jing, Jing
[00:49.00]Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da
[00:52.54]Jing, Jing, Jing
[00:54.67]That's a funny little bit of melody
[00:57.65]It's so soothing and appealing to me
[01:00.67]It goes Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da
[01:04.18]Jing, Jing, Jing
[01:10.96]Our bands have been digging back for tunes to be sung
[01:14.28]Operas and nursery rhymes have been overdone
[01:17.29]I dug a little deeper and I found this thing
[01:20.19]It's ragtime but it still can swing
[01:23.27]It ain't a turkeytrot or a shimmey onestep
[01:26.79]But when grandma danced to it
[01:28.17]She thought she was hep
[01:29.83]It still is a ditty
[01:32.05]I'm sure you will find
[01:33.72]Will keep a runnin' 'round and around your mind
[01:35.43]Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da
[01:38.89]Jing, Jing, Jing
[01:41.52]Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da
[01:45.02]Jing, Jing, Jing
[01:47.01]That's a funny little bit of melody
[01:50.04]It's so soothing and appealing to me
[01:53.07]It goes Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Ja-Da
[01:56.54]Jing, Jing, Jing
