That Da Da Strain by Ethel Waters Lyrics

[Verse]
Have you heard it, have you heard it, that da-da strain?
It will shake you, it will make you really go insane
Everybody's full of pep
Makes you watch your every step
Every prancer, every dancer starts to lay 'em down
Everybody when they hear it starts to buzzin' 'round
And I get crazy as a loon
When everybody hums this tune:

[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
It comes a-stealin', sets your brain a-reeling
Just like you're sailing over the bounding main
When everybody starts to
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
I wanna do it once again
I'm simply wild about that da-da-da-da strain

[Chorus]
Oh, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
It comes a-stealin', sets your brain a-reeling
Just like you're sailing over the bounding main
When everybody starts to
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
I wanna do it once again
I'm simply wild about that da-da-da-da strain
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Now da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Comes a-stealin', sets your brain a-reeling
Just like you're sailing over the bounding main
Oh, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
I wanna do it once again
I'm simply wild about that da-da-da-da strain
