Bessie Smith - Gimme A Pigfoot Lyrics

"Up in Harlem every Saturday night

When the highbrows get together it's just so right

They all congregate at an all night hop

And what they do is Oo Bop Bee Dap

Oh Hannah Brown from way cross town

Gets full of coin and starts breaking 'em down

And at the break of day

You can hear ol' Hannah say

'Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer.

Send me again.I don't care.

I feel just like I wanna clown.

Give the piano player a drink because he's bringing me down!

He's gotta rhyme yeah!When he stomps his feet.

He sends me right off to sleep.

Check all your razors and your guns.

We gonna be arrested when the wagon comes.

I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer.

Send me cause I don't care.

Blame me cause I don't care.

Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer.

Send me again I don't care.

I feel just like I wanna clown.

Give the piano player a drink because he's bringing me down.

He's got rhyme Yeah when he stomps his feet.

He sends me right off to sleep.

Check all your razors and your guns.

Do the Shim-Sham Shimmy 'til the rising sun.

Give me a reaper and a gang of gin.

Play me cause I'm in my sin.

Blame me cause I'm full of gin.'"
