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 "
