Oh-oh! wait a minute!
What? What wickedness I'd ***?
De way you's carryin' on!
*** pygmy I be clutchin'
Have been lef' out on de lawn! De daddy were ne-glij-ible,
De mama were de-flate-able,
De trauma to de imfunt
Be mostly not ne-gate-able Yo' urgin' to be exitin'
Because of *** fla-min-i-go's
Be thoroughly perplexin' him
Because of where yo' petuh goes If only you been 'siderate
Erbout *** lil' illiterate
I wouldna been trudgin' cross de san'
Fum way down yonder in e-gyp-lan' Dey callin' me brown moses,
Fo' dat I'd sho'ly what I am,
Ancient an' re-lij-er-mus
Solemn an' pres-tig-i-mus
Wisdom reekin' outa me
'long wif summa *** baby pee
'minds me of *** river weeds
'n all *** ignint Bible deeds Growed up in de pharaoh place,
Lef' de sucker in ***grace!
Some *** boys refuse to loin
Somthin' smokin': somthin' boin! Somethin' borry: somethin' blue!
Best keeps a lil' paper
In yo shoe!
Hear me when i's tellin' you:
Leavin' de midgit were
Wrong t'do! It's a terr'ble thang, done did to him
Left wit de crab-grass
Over his chin!
Sho'ly one day he will grow,
'n put some ***
In yo' sack o' woe Ol' brown moses now have spoke!
Could ya lends me 'bout a dollar?
I's a tiny bit broke I likes my wine
I loves my gin
'n fo a lil' collateral,
I'll gives ya him!
A lil' collateral,
I'll gives ya him!
A lil' collateral,
I'll gives ya him!
I said a lil' collateral,
A lil' collateral,
A lil' collateral,
A lil' collateral,
A lil' collateral,
I'll gives ya him!
I'll gives ya him!
