I can't walk, neither can I talk
Just gettin' back from the state of old New York
One morning before day
|
Flossie, oh Flossie, now what is
the matter
Walked all the way from old Cincinatta
One morning before day
|
If I lose, let me lose
I don't care how much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime
For my baby, she needs money all the time
|
The blood was a-runnin', and I
was runnin' too
Give my feet some exercise, I had nothing else to do
One morning before day
|
If I lose, let me lose
I don't care how much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime
For my baby, she needs money all the time
|
The peas was so greasy, the meat
was so fat
The boys was fightin' the Spaniards while I was fightin' gnats
One morning before day
|
If I lose, let me lose
I don't care how much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime
For my baby, she needs money all the time
|
See them girls settin' at the
tank
Ready to catch a freight train they call old Nancy Hanks
One morning before day
|
If I lose, let me lose
I don't care how much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime
For my baby, she needs money all the time
