[00:00.00]Gimme A Pigfoot And A Bottle Of Beer - Bessie Smith
[00:05.79]I walked into a honkey-tonkey
[00:11.59]Just the other day
[00:13.74]I dropped a nickel in the juke box
[00:16.13]Just to hear it play
[00:18.01]I didn't have no tune in mind
[00:20.34]I didn't wait to choose
[00:22.15]Just dropped a nickel in the slot
[00:24.40]And I played the juke box blues
[00:26.32]
[00:34.92]There's a guy in there
[00:36.01]With an old tin horn
[00:37.22]And a feller on an old banjo
[00:39.19]And the man of the fiddle
[00:40.36]He wasn't no slouch
[00:41.35]He could really drag that bow
[00:44.08]
[00:51.86]Well the man on the fiddle
[00:53.00]He must have got tired
[00:54.08]I didn't hear him say
[00:56.17]'Cause he cut loose on the steel guitar
[00:58.15]And the juke box ran away
[01:00.70]
[01:09.79]And I've heard something going strong
[01:12.04]It must have been a drum
[01:14.14]It gave that song a solid beat
[01:16.15]Boy it was goin' some
[01:19.23]
[01:26.37]I walked into a honkey-tonkey
[01:28.86]Just the other day
[01:30.70]I dropped a nickel in the juke box
[01:33.05]Just to hear it play
[01:34.96]I didn't have no tune in mind
[01:37.13]I didn't wait to choose
[01:39.05]Just dropped a nickel in the slot
[01:41.29]And I played the juke box blues
[01:43.42]
[01:51.78]I've played a lot of juke boxes
[01:54.10]Most everyone in town
[01:56.50]That's the first tune I've ever heard
[01:58.49]That can make one night surround
[02:01.92]
[02:03.01]Play the juke box blues
[02:05.10]Such a rhythm I've never heard
[02:07.03]I danced out both of my shoes
