Ma Rainey's Black Bottom Lyrics |
1984 Broadway - 2003 Broadway revival - 2020 Film adaptation Ma Rainey's Black Bottom - Ma Rainey's Black Bottom Lyrics
Way down south in Alabamy I got a friend, they call dancin' Sammy Who's crazy about all the latest dances Black bottom stomps and the Jew baby prances The other night at a swell affair Soon as the boys found out that I was there They said, "Come on Ma, let's go to the cabaret" Where that band you ought to hear me say I want to see that dance you call the black bottom I wanna learn that dance Don't you see the dance you call your big black bottom That'll put you in a trance All the boys in the neighborhood They say your black bottom is really good Come on and show me your black bottom I want to learn that dance I want to see the dance you call the black bottom I want to learn that dance Come on and show that dance you call your big black bottom It puts you in a trance Early last morning 'bout the break of day Grandpa told my grandma, I heard him say Get up and show your old man your black bottom I want to learn that dance
