Cotton Blossom
(Performed by Chorus)
[Stevedores]
Here we all work on de Mississippi
Here we all work while de white folks play,
Loadin' up boots wid de bales of cotton,
Gettin' no rest till de Judgement Day.
[Gals]
Drop dat bale and have some fun!
Dere's a lot o' lovin' on de levee for you
Y' work all day, y' get no fun~
We know somethin' better for a feller to do!
[Stevedores and Gals]
Here we all work on de Mississippi
Here we all work while de white folks play~
Loadin' up boats wid de bales of cotton
Gittin' no rest till de Judgement Day.
[Stevedores]
Cotton Blossom, Cotton Blossom,
Love to see you growin' free.
When dey pack you on de levee
You're a heavy load to me!
[Stevedores and Gals]
Cotton Blossom, Cotton Blossom,
Love to see you growin' wild~
On de levee, you're too heavy
Fo' dis po' ol' child!
[Beaux]
What a pretty bevy!
Ah, there! Ah, there!
The fairest of the fair!
To Southern beauty
Ev'ry beau must bow!
[Mincing Misses]
How you love to flatter,
You rogues! You rogues!
Oh, goodness gracious!
They're so flirtatious!
You naughty fellows
Seem to think you please us
When you tease us so~
You're a reckless
Lot we know!
[Beaux]
Little women, don't be timorous!
