Brother Bill (Live at the Crescendo Club, 1955) Louis Armstrong and His All Stars

[Spoken intro]
And here's one coming up called Me and Brother Bill Went Huntin'

[Verse 1]
Me and brother Bill went huntin'
Way in the Eastern Maine
The reason why we went up there
We thought we'd catch some game
As we were a huntin'
Way in the middle of the night
We shot at somethin' looked like a grizzly bear
The doggone thing turned white

I said to my brother
Come on and let's go home
He said now if you're going to the house
You have to go alone
As we were a huntin'
It commenced to risin' up high
I looked toward my house
And I didn't even say goodbye

[Chorus]
I dropped that gun and away I run
Brother Bill says boy what's the matter with you
Had he known like me, he'd've ran some too
I run so fast to say till couldn't catch me all day
The way I run across that field
No, you couldn't catch me with an automobile
