Showboat Cast - Cotton Blossom Lyrics

STEVEDORES
Niggers all work on de Mississippi
Niggers all work while de white folks play-
Loadin' up boats wid de bales of cotton,
Gittin' no rest till de Judgement Day.

GALS
Git yo'self a bran' new gal,
A lovin' baby who's de apple of yo' eye.
Coal black Rose or high brown Sal,
Dey all kin cook de sparrer grass an' chicken pie!
STEVEDORES
Hey! Git along, git along,
Git along, git along.
Hey! Git along, git along,
git along, hey!

STEVEDORES
