[Verse 1]
There's mosquitoes on the river
Fish are rising up like birds
Been hot for seven weeks now
Too hot to even speak now
You hear what I just heard?
It might have been a fiddle (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Or it could have been the wind (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
But there seems to be a beat now (Ooh)
I can feel it my feet now (Ooh, ooh)
Here it comes again
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a band out on the highway
They're high-stepping into town
It's a rainbow full of sound
Fireworks, calliopes and clowns
Everybody’s dancing
[Chorus]
Come on children, come on children now
Come on and clap your hands
[Verse 2]
Well, the cool breeze around
Thе moon came up in wine
Stars werе spinning dizzy
Lord, the band kept us so busy
We forgot about the time
They're a band beyond description
Like Jehovah's favorite choir
People joining hand in hand
Let the music play the band
Lord, they're setting us on fire
Crazy rooster crowing midnight (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Balls of lightning roll along (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Old men sing about their dreams (Ooh)
Women laugh and children scream (Ooh, ooh)
And the band keeps playing on
[Pre-Chorus]
Keep on dancing through the daylight
Greet the morning air with song
No one's noticed, but the band's all packed and gone
Were they ever here at all?
But they kept on dancing
[Chorus]
Oh, come on children, come on children
Come on, clap your hands
[Outro]
Well, the sun beams are up
The corn's a bumper crop
The fields are full of dancing
Full of singing and romancing
The music never stopped
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
We'll be back in just a little bit
There's mosquitoes on the river
Fish are rising up like birds
Been hot for seven weeks now
Too hot to even speak now
You hear what I just heard?
It might have been a fiddle (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Or it could have been the wind (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
But there seems to be a beat now (Ooh)
I can feel it my feet now (Ooh, ooh)
Here it comes again
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a band out on the highway
They're high-stepping into town
It's a rainbow full of sound
Fireworks, calliopes and clowns
Everybody’s dancing
[Chorus]
Come on children, come on children now
Come on and clap your hands
[Verse 2]
Well, the cool breeze around
Thе moon came up in wine
Stars werе spinning dizzy
Lord, the band kept us so busy
We forgot about the time
They're a band beyond description

Let the music play the band
Lord, they're setting us on fire

Balls of lightning roll along (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
