Verse A: There's mosquitos on the river
Fish are rising up like birds
It's been hot for seven weeks now
Too hot to even speak now
Did you hear what I just heard?-----
Well it could have been a fiddle
Or it might have been the wind
But there seems to be a beat now
I can feel it in my feet now
Listen here it comes again-----
Chorus: There's a band out on the highway
High steppin' into town
It's a rainbow full of sounds
It's fireworks calliopes and clowns
Everybody's dancin' (Bridge)
Come on children, come on children
Come on clap your hands (Bridge 2)
Verse B: Well the sun went down in honey
And the moon came up in wine
You know the stars were spinning dizzy
Lord the band kept us so busy
We forgot about the time (Bridge 3)
Verse A: They're a band beyond description
Like Jehovah's favorite choir
People join' hand in hand while the music plays the band
Lord, they're settin' us on fire-----
Crazy rooster crowin' midnight
Balls of lightning roll along
Old men sing about their dreams
Women laugh and children scream
And the band keeps playin' on-----
Chorus: Keep on dancing through to daylight
Greet the morning air with song
No one's noticed but the band's all packed and gone
Was it ever here at all?
But they kept on dancin' (Bridge)
Come on children, come on children
Come on clap your hands (Bridge 2)
Verse B: Well the cool breeze came on Tuesday
And the corn's a bumper crop
You know the fields were full of dancing
Full of singing and romancing
THE MUSIC NEVER STOPPED (Bridge 3, Ending)
