When The Saints Go Marchin' In
Performed By Grant Raymond Barrett
Gospel Hymn
I am just a lonely traveler in this big, wide world we're in.
Wanna join that grand procession when the saints go marchin' in.
Oh, when the saints go marchin' in. Oh, when the saints go
marchin' in. Yes, I want to be in that number when the saints go
marchin' in!
All the folks I've had around
me, all my friends and all my kin. I will meet with them up yonder when
the saints go marchin' in. Oh, when the saints go marchin'
in. Oh, when the saints go marchin' in. Yes, I want to be
in that number when the saints go marchin' in!
Come and join me in my journey
cuz it's time that we begin. For we'll be there for that great
day when the saints go marchin' in. Oh, when the saints go
marchin' in. Oh, when the saints go marchin' in. Yes, I
want to be in that number when the saints go marchin' in!

While We Danced At The Mardi Gras
Performed By Grant Raymond Barrett
Music By Alfred Opler, Lyrics By John Mercer (1931)
Romantic, carefree, splendid night! A gay and glad pretended
night! A magic moon above lighting the way to our magic
love. I begged for just one dance with you. Instead I found
romance with you. I should have known not to trust that
waltz. Was it a real love or just that waltz?
While we danced as we dreamed at the Mardi Gras. Was romance what
it seemed at the Mardi Gras? Was the love that we made just a
brief masquerade? Was it gone with the song that the orchestra
played? With a sigh, with a glance at the moon above. Was
it just by chance we spoke of love? Or did you somehow feel
that the moment was real while we danced at the Mardi Gras?

Alexander's Ragtime Band
Performed By Grant Raymond Barrett
By Irving Berlin (1911)
Oh, ma honey! Oh, ma honey, better hurry and let's
meander. Ain't ya goin'? Ain't ya goin' to the leader man,
ragged meter-man? Oh, ma honey! Oh, ma honey, let me take
you to Alexander's grandstand, brass band! Ain't ya comin' along?
Come on and hear! Come on and hear Alexander's Ragtime
Band! Come on and hear! Come on and hear, it's the best
band in the land! They can play a bugle call like you never heard
before. So natural that you wanna shout for more. That's
just the bestest band what am, honey lamb. Come on along! Come on along,
let me take you by the hand, up to the man, up to the
man who's the leader of the band. And if you care to hear that
"Swanee River" played in ragtime. Come on and hear! Come on and
hear Alexander's Ragtime Band!
