[Spoken Intro]
LOUIS ARMSTRONG: There's a guy coming up the street, look like he's from my hometown. Look like old Charlie Alexander, man. Well I believe it is my boy. What you say?
CHARLIE ALEXANDER: Well what you say, Dipper?
LA: Well what you know, Jim?
CA: Oh, nothing much boy
LA: How long you been up here, boy?
CA: Oh, I've been up here about... about a year and a half
LA: A year and a half? (laughs) Man, I've been up there a long time myself. I'm going back home
CA: Well go then
LA: I'm going. Get some of them red beans. You remember them [?] ? Get a load of this, this is where I'm going back
[Verse 1]
Oh, the pale moon's shining on the fields below
Darkies crooning soft and low
You needn't tell me, boy, because I know
It's sleepy time down south, mmm
