The Shorty Georges (From "You Were Never Lovelier") |
| Just heard of the Shorty George |
| Got word of the Shorty George |
| Seems that it’s a kind of jig |
| Named for someone about so big |
| He rambles around the town |
| Preambles around the town |
| Then stops on a crowded street |
| 'n beats his feet till his feet is beat |
| Watch him go! |
| — and he can — |
| Like a real- nach'-l man |
| High Stepper is Shorty George |
| Black pepper is Shorty George |
| He dances to pay the rent |
| And to see that you’re solid sent |
| Mister can you spare a penny? |
| Lady can you spare a dime? |
| He makes, I don’t know how many |
| 'Cause he’s dancin' all the time |
| Popa’s dressed up mighty sporty |
| Momma’s snooz-in' in the shade |
| But while mommas’s catchin' «forty» |
| Shorty sees the rent is paid |
| Get hip to the Shorty George |
| Hop, skip to the «Shorty George» |
| Directions are short and sweet |
| Beat your feet till your feet is beat |
| So catch-on to «Shorty George» |
| And latch onto «Shorty George» |
| Good people I’m tellin' you |
| «Shorty George» is the dance to do |
