Introduction -- Summertime -- Give him to me ... A woman is a sometime thing -- My man's gone now -- How de saucer stan' now, my sister? -- Oh, the train is at the station -- Oh, I'm agoin' out to the Blackfish banks -- Mus' be you mens forgot ... Oh, I got plenty o' nuttin' -- Lissen there ... I hates yo' struttin' style -- Buzzard keep on flyin' over -- Honey, we sure goin' strut our stuff ... Bess, you is my woman now -- Oh, I can't sit down -- It ain't necessarily so -- Oh, what you want wid Bess? -- A red-headed woman make a choo-choo jump its track -- Listen: there's a boat dat's leavin' soon for New York -- Dem white folks sure ain' put nuttin' over on this baby -- Here Mingo, what's de matter wid you all? -- Where's Bess? -- Bess is gone -- Oh, Lawd, I'm on my way. |
