Up in Harlem every saturday night
|
Were the highbrows get together, just to write
|
They all congregate at an allnite hack
|
What they do is ooh papa dah
|
|
Ol' Hannah Brown, way cross town
|
Gets full of corn and starts brining 'em down
|
And at the break of day
|
You can hear ol' Hannah say
|
|
Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer
|
Send me daddy, move right down
|
I feel just like I wanna clown
|
Give the piano player a drink
|
Because he's bringing me down
|
|
He's got rhythm, when he stomps his feet
|
He moves me right off to sleep
|
Check all your razors and your guns
|
We're gonna be arrested when the wagon comes
|
|
Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer
|
Send me 'cause I don't care
|
|
I want a pigfoot and a bottle of gin
|
Send me daddy, move right in
|
Feel just like I wanna shop
|
Give the piano player a drink
|
Because he's knocking me out
|
|
He's got rhythm when he stomps his feet
|
He moves me right off to sleep
|
Check all your razors and your guns
|
We're gonna do the huckabuck until the rising sun
|
|
Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of gin
|
Move me 'cause I don't care
|
I want a pigfoot and a bottle of beer
|
