brown baby
spoken: h-llo, folks, at last i’m back again!
i’m going back to a tennessee town
back on a visit to my coffee brown
‘way up the river
we will row
up and down the levee
we will go!
i’ve got some baby waiting for me
my brown baby in old tennessee
when he starts to loving
that’s when he finds
i’m just crazy about that baby of mine!
do you suppose i ever will know
brown baby!
what he has got
that makes me love him so?
brown baby!
what about his smile
that almost gets me wild?
he makes a grown-up woman act just like a child;
brown baby
here in old tennessee!
now, he don’t use no poor row [?]
no farmer’s skin’s so tan
but what he’s got is all his own
and he’s only got the best;
his eyes are just like midnight
best-looking man in town
and i’ll tell you why i’m crazy
about my country brown
but, do you suppose i ever will know
brown baby!
what he has got
that makes me love him so?
oh, brown baby!
what about his smile
that almost gets me wild?
he makes a grown-up woman act just like a child;
brown baby, baby!
from old tennessee
