Gimme a Pigfoot and Bottle of Beer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Up in Harlem every Saturday night When the highbrows get together, it's just too right They all congregate at an all night hop And what they do is ooh-bop-bee-dop Old Hannah Brown from way 'cross town Gets full of coin and starts breaking 'em down And at the break of day You can hear old Hannah say [Chorus] Give me a pigfoot and a bottle of beer Send me again, I don't care I feel just like I wanna shout Give the piano player a drink because he's bringing me down [Verse 2] He's got rhythm, yeah, when he stomps his feet He sends me right off to sleep Check all your razors and your guns We're gonna be arrested when the wagon comes [Chorus] Give me a pigfoot and a bottle of beer Send me 'cause I don't care [Verse 3] I want a reefer And a gang of gin Send me daddy, move right in I feel just like I wanna shout Give the piano player a drink because he's knocking me out [Verse 4] He's got rhythm, yeah, when he stomps his feet He moves me right off to sleep Check all your razors and your guns Do the huckabuck until the rising sun [Outro] Give me a pigfoot and a bottle of gin Move me 'cause I'm in my sin Give me a pigfoot, pigfoot And a bottle of beer
