[Intro]
Twenty-five cents? Ha! No! No!
I wouldn't pay twenty-five cents to go in nowhere
'Cause listen here
[Verse 1]
Up in Harlem ev'ry Saturday night
When the highbrows get together it's just too tight
They all congregate at an all-night strut
And what they do is tut-tut-tut
[Verse 2]
Ol' Hannah Brown from 'cross town
Gets full of corn and starts breakin' 'em down
And at the break of day
You can hear ol' Hannah say
[Chorus]
"Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer
Send me again, I don't care
I feel just like I wanna clown
Give the piano player a drink because he's bringin' me down!"
[Verse 3]
He's got rhythm, yeah! When he stomps his feet
He sends me right off to sleep
Check all your razors and your guns
We gonna be wrestlin' when the wagon comes
Twenty-five cents? Ha! No! No!
I wouldn't pay twenty-five cents to go in nowhere
'Cause listen here
[Verse 1]
Up in Harlem ev'ry Saturday night
When the highbrows get together it's just too tight
They all congregate at an all-night strut
And what they do is tut-tut-tut
[Verse 2]
Ol' Hannah Brown from 'cross town
Gets full of corn and starts breakin' 'em down
And at the break of day
You can hear ol' Hannah say
[Chorus]
"Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer
Send me again, I don't care
I feel just like I wanna clown
Give the piano player a drink because he's bringin' me down!"
[Verse 3]
He's got rhythm, yeah! When he stomps his feet
He sends me right off to sleep
Check all your razors and your guns
We gonna be wrestlin' when the wagon comes
