[people of harlem]
his name was coalhouse walker

[man 1]
was a native of st. louis some years before

[woman 1]
when he heard the music of scott joplin

[man 2]
in st. louis

[woman 2]
bought himself some piano lessons working as a stevedore

[man 3]
here was a music that truly inspired him

[women]
dancers required him

[men]
club owners hired him

[people of harlem]
the strivers of harlem respected and admired him
[man 4]
for turning harlem into art

[coalhouse]
but coalhouse had a broken heart

[coalhouse, spoken]
the good lord looked down and saw me lonely and lovelеss
and he thought to himself
“enough is enough
i’m putting sarah into coalhousе’s life”

[coalhouse]
and he did

[coalhouse, spoken]
this wasn’t a woman
this was an angel, a gift of god
now coalhouse loved this woman
but not wisely and not too well
she left me without a word or trace
and there was no pity for me

[sarah’s friend, spoken]
none at all, coalhouse
oh, please
[coalhouse]
now she is haunting me
just like a melody
the only song i seem to know
sarah, my life has changed
sarah, i miss you so
sarah, i did you wrong
sarah, where did you go?

[coalhouse, spoken]
and then this morning, the miracle happened
i found out where she is
and i’m gonna do my d-mnedest to see she takes me back
