Up in Harlem every saturday night   Were the highbrows get together, just to write   They all congregate at an allnite hack   What they do is ooh papa dah      Ol' Hannah Brown, way cross town   Gets full of corn and starts brining 'em down   And at the break of day   You can hear ol' Hannah say      Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer   Send me daddy, move right down   I feel just like I wanna clown   Give the piano player a drink   Because he's bringing me down      He's got rhythm, when he stomps his feet   He moves me right off to sleep   Check all your razors and your guns   We're gonna be arrested when the wagon comes      Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer   Send me 'cause I don't care      I want a pigfoot and a bottle of gin   Send me daddy, move right in   Feel just like I wanna shop   Give the piano player a drink   Because he's knocking me out      He's got rhythm when he stomps his feet   He moves me right off to sleep   Check all your razors and your guns   We're gonna do the huckabuck until the rising sun      Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of gin   Move me 'cause I don't care   I want a pigfoot and a bottle of beer
