Work House Blues - Bessie Smith (贝西·史密斯)

Come along get you ready Wear your bran' bran' new gown

For there's gwine to be a meeting

In that good good old town

Where you knowded everybody

And they all knowded you

And you've got a rabbit's foot

To keep away de hoo-doo

When you hear that the preaching does begin

Bend down low for to drive away your sin

And when you gets religion

You want to shout and sing

There'll be a hot time in the

Old town tonight My baby

When you hear dem a bells

Go ding ling ling

All join 'round and sweetly

You must sing

And when the verse am through

In the chorus all join in

There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight

There'll be girls for ev'ry body:

In that good good old town

For there's Miss Consola Davis

And there's Miss Gondolia Brown

And there's Miss Johanna Beasly

She all dressed in red

I just hugged her and I kissed her

And to me then she said:

Please oh please oh do not let me fall

You're all mine and I love you best of all

And you must be my man

Or I'll have no man at all

There'll be a hot time in the old

Town tonight My baby

When you hear dem a bells

Go ding ling ling

All join 'round and sweetly

You must sing

And when the verse am through

In the chorus all join in

There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight
