Pigs Foot and a Bottle of Beer |
Up in Harlem on a Saturday night |
Were the highbrows get together, it’s just to tight |
We all gather at the Harlem Strut |
And what we do is tut tut tut |
Ol' Hannah Brown, from way cross town |
Keeps drinking her liquor and she brings them down |
Just at the break of day |
You could hear old Hannah say |
I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer |
Send me daddy, cos I don’t care |
I feel just like I wanna clown |
Give the piano player a drink |
Cause he brought me down |
He just send me right off to sleep |
Check all your razors and your guns |
I’m gonna be arrested when the wagon comes |
I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer |
Send me cos I don’t care oh no |
Send me cos I don’t care |
I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer |
Send me daddy, cos I don’t care |
I feel just like I wanna clown |
Give the piano player a drink |
Cause he brought me down |
He’s got rhythm when he stomps his feet |
He moves me right off to sleep |
Check all your razors check your guns |
I’m gonna be arrested when the wagon comes |
I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer |
Send me cos I don’t care oh no |
Send me cos I don’t care |
