(spoken:)
+a: say, how come there ain’t no singin’ in this here record?
+b: mr. tram, there’s gonna be singing’ here presently of a sort
+a: you, you, you know i ain’t heard no singing’ yet
+b: you just get a load of this song here
+a: (scatting) “lo de dit em dit ee dit em”
+b: is that it?
+a: that’s the prelude, now we sing
(singing):
when thе sun goes down, the tide goеs out
the darkies gather round and they all begin to shout
hey hey uncle dud…
+a: oh you mean uncle dud down home with his feet in the mud?
+b: i don’t mean uncle dud’s pappy and his feets’ really in the mud
what a dance do they do
lordy how i’m telling you
they don’t need no band
they keep time by clapping their hands
just as happy as a cow chewing on a cud
when the darkies beat their feet
on the mississippi mud
+bix beiderbecke trumpet solo+
why they don’t need no band
they keep time by clapping their hands
just as happy as a cow chewing on a cud
when the darkies beat their feet…
+a: you done got me jumped up & beatin’ my feet!
…on the mississippi mud
