Roaring Twenties, Roaring Twenties.
How’d ya do, I’m takin’ you to The Roaring Twenties
For a true bird’s-eye-view Of the Roaring Twenties.

Come with me to the melody of the Charleston and Jazz.
Yes-sir-ree, I’ll have you dancin’ with Flappers, Finger Snappers.

What a ball, Broadway playboys and playdolls, gaydolls.
See them all: Racketeers and their gunmolls, funmolls.
Prohibition and bathtub gin. If Bennie sent you, you walk right in.  To a Speak Easy, Speak Easy.

Come along to the song of the Roaring Twenties
The wild and restless, never boring rousing, roaring, speak easy, speak easy
Super dooper, frizzle frazzle.  Hoop de doo and razzle dazzle.  Roaring, soaring Twenties.
