Composed in 1932 by a Russian-born composer of film scores called Josef Myrow, who also wrote 'You Make Me Feel So Young'

lyrics

I said, blue drag,
It sure is draggin' me down:
I'm almost scraping the ground
When I hear that blue drag.
Slow drag,
It's got that new lazy swing;
I crave that new crazy swing;
I must have my blue drag!
Oh that rhythm, blue rhythm, has brought me
A peculiar phase;
Oh that rhythm, blue rhythm, has brought me
Peculiar days.
I can't get enough of blue drag;
You've got my soul on fire;
I never tire of that low down blue drag.

Now I said "blue drag",
It sure is draggin' me down:
I'm almost scraping the ground
When I hear that blue drag.
Slow drag,
It's got that new lazy swing;
I crave that new crazy swing;
I must have my blue drag!
Oh that rhythm, blue rhythm, has brought me
A peculiar phase;
Oh that rhythm, blue rhythm, has brought me
Peculiar days.
Blue drag,
You've got my soul on fire;
Oh, I never tire of that low down blue drag.
I said that low down,
I said that low down,
I said that low down blue drag.
