Up in harlem on a saturday night
Were the highbrows get together, it´s just to tight
We all gather at the harlem strut
And what we do is tut tut tut

Ol´ hannah brown, from way cross town
Keeps drinking her liquor and she brings them down
Just at the break of day
You could hear old hannah say

I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer
Send me daddy, cos I don´t care
I feel just like I wanna clown
Give the piano player a drink
Cause he brought me down

He just send me right off to sleep
Check all your razors and your guns

I´m gonna be arrested when the wagon comes

I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer
Send me cos I don´t care oh no
Send me cos I don´t care

I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer
Send me daddy, cos I don´t care
I feel just like I wanna clown
Give the piano player a drink
Cause he brought me down

He´s got rhythm when he stomps his feet
He moves me right off to sleep
Check all your razors check your guns
I´m gonna be arrested when the wagon comes

I wanna pigfoot and a bottle of beer
Send me cos I don´t care oh no
Send me cos I don´t care
