South of the river you (1)________ and you hold everything
A band is (2)______________ dixie (3)____________ four time
You feel alright when you hear that music ring

Well now you step (4)____________ but you don't see too (5)________ faces

Competition in other places
Ah but the horns, they blowin' that sound
Way on down south
Way on down south, London town

Then he makes it fast (24)________ one (25)________ thing
We are the Sultans
We are the Sultans of (26)__________
