It was the big evening in the city, Into the night, time was drifting

and the shindig meeting, “hitting”, downtown, was very pleasing, and fitting

the summer was there and not leaving, and the living was easy,

 

and straight out of the limo or shall I say jitney, bound to be neo ragtime “riffing”, his miraculous, entrance among the big big crowd was very very uplifting

 

1 hour later, the long tall with piano power creator, was the Riddle of the crowded room, with the ragtime tunes, music entertainer, the bassline booms merry maker.

 

leading, the nightclub, with his gift, with his musical order so fine

needing his again key riffs, with the feet thuds, which were in their prime

He was Long tall and handsome, In the middle of the room, his new Joplin grind, was next in his queues line.

 

defeating the boredom, of the crowd who were seeking, pleasurable happy moments,

Meepsy was bound to do his famous sweepsy, everyone knew he was red hot potent and aesthetic

pleasing, he was focused.

 

and some people in the crowd of course were feeling the buzz, and feeling freaky.

 

Beacherine Rag was pursued

Air B. Gone Rag was a take off of the blues

Meeping Willow so rad had nothing to lose

And Hooking Hooker’s reign was the bees knees in the nightclub pad and the news

 

And the great one next had the crowd slightly leaping

keeping up with the crowds demand his prelude-untitled-ditty went speeding

and still his same ragtime shoes were beating.

 

The crowds outloud demand for the song during the dance, repeating had a warm love greeting

play sweepsy!

play sweepsy!

The crowds outloud demand with a chant repeating for the song was born! and was pleading

 

So the big moment under the roof of fun came,

the sobering one, with a billboard run, which brought him to fame

which was bound to keep even the freaky crowdsters sane

was bound to be walking down the line on Wallstreet’s lane.

 

Meepsy came on,

intriguing the crowd in a way so strong, and his melody was heating,

It’s a wonder how his hands and rays weren’t already bleeding.

 

His Meepsy was true, sincere,  steaming

And wahoo! the group of pufferfish team went!

And the nightclub disco-like lights continued beaming

their chest bumps indicated that their money was well spent

again lit was the evening.

 

I was their, in my new uniform I wasn’t going to be no square, on the dance

floor, needless to say I wasn’t moving with a wooden chair.

 

Far removed from Poughkeepsie, at the blue, underwater speakeasy, with basslines playing deeply, again on repeat mode night, on the weekly,

Meepsy easily did his famous sweepsy.
