| Miscellaneous | 
| At the New Jump Steady Ball | 
| (Delaney — Easton) | 
| Now the Jump Steady Club | 
| They gave a ball | 
| And it was held down at the New Hope Hall; | 
| All the bootleggers in the town | 
| Why, they brought that stuff steady along; | 
| People came from far and near | 
| To taste the different mixtures that they handled there; | 
| When the jazz band struck up | 
| You’d be surprised; | 
| Everybody in the hall was google-eyed; | 
| They started serving me gin and wine | 
| And everything in wood alcohol line | 
| Chicago pop and all, I declare | 
| All kinds of hair tonic went around with the dance; | 
| You make a tincture mixed with turpentine | 
| With black molasses made it stupifying; | 
| Extract of lemon and ginger ale | 
| Mixes great with shoe polish | 
| And you’re bound for jail; | 
| Copasetic was the password for one and all | 
| At the New Jump Steady Ball! | 
| About twelve o’clock I was feeling fine | 
| To tell the truth, I was out of my mind; | 
| But just before I lost my head | 
| I saw them carry six men out dead! | 
| They walked out the window, in the air | 
| They called for music, but no jazz band was there; | 
| Yet everybody there was pleasure bent; | 
| You could get paralyzed for fifteen cents | 
| They started serving me gin and wine | 
| And everything in wood alcohol line | 
| Chicago pop and all, I declare | 
| All kinds of hair tonic went around with the dance; | 
| You make a tincture mixed with turpentine | 
| With black molasses made it stupifying | 
| Extract of lemon and ginger ale | 
| Mixes great with shoe polish | 
| And you’re bound for jail; | 
| Copasetic was the password for one and all | 
| At the New Jump Steady Ball! |
