[PASSENGERS] God lift me up in mighty waters Keep my eyes on things above Righteousness, divine atonement Peace and everlasting love... [HARTLEY] Ladies and gentlemen - Everyone up and out Follow the band and shout: "Isn't it a lovely day?" [STEWARD] Yes!

[HARTLEY] How do you do, my friends? So good to see you once more How long since we first met? Has it been three days or four? It seems like so much longer Than a little weekend jag [HARTLEY & BAND] On the ship, by ourselves On this glorious afternoon Doing the latest rag! [HARTLEY] I love the cool of the breeze Feel the rhythm of the song in your knees Promenading along at your ease Like a feather in the air [HARTLEY & BAND] Is that the hint of a chill? When you're dancing out of doors it's a thrill Keeps you hardy and healthier still Take a partner if you dare Everyone is bursting with emotion Dancing as we cross the mighty ocean Moving to the rhythm of The latest rag! [ALL] Come on and [MEN & BAND] Dance with me please Feel the rhythm of the song in your knees Promenading along at your ease Like a feather in the air Is that a hint of a chill? When you're dancing outdoors it's a thrill Keeps you hardy and healthier still Take a partner if you dare [HARTLEY & WOMEN] Dance The latest ragtime Ragtime Now! Dance The latest ragtime Ragtime [HARTLEY & BAND] Out on the well-deck Ship's personnel deck Feel all the ocean spray [BAND] Get yourself upon [HARTLEY & BAND] The upper hotel deck Oh what a swell deck! Great for your déjeuner [BAND] Turn the corner on [PASSENGERS] Port... [HARTLEY & BAND] The port parallel deck It's la plus belle deck All of the rest pa**é [ALL] Now the band is betting This ragtime setting Will take you away Everyone up and out Nobody lag about Let your darker spirits climb! Strolling with the orchestra beside you Playing four-four time [HARTLEY & BAND MEMBER] We've got a fellow Who's better on cello Than any other ship can brag [ALL] So take your girl by the hand And lend an ear to the band And do today's latest rag Come dancing!
