Black Bottom - Annette Hanshaw/Helen Forrest
Oh the black bottom of the Swanee river
Sometimes like to shake and shiveer
But it makes the darkies feel like struttin' around I watchin'
They found a way to imitate it
I know they exaggerate it
But I wish that you could see the dance that they found
Every high brown gal and her bon-bon buddy
Go down where the tracks are muddy
To do a step that soon will be renowned
They call it black bottom a new twister
Sure got 'em oh sister
They clap their hands and do a raggedy trot it's hot
Old fellows with lumbago
With high yellers away they go
They jump right in and give it all that they've got
They say that when the river bottom covered with ooze
Start in to squirm
Couples dance here's the movement they use
Just like a worm
Black bottom
A new rhythm
When you spot 'em
You go with 'em
And do that black black bottom all the day long
They say that when the river bottom covered with ooze
Start in to squirm
Couples dance here's the movement they use
Just like a worm
Black bottom
A new rhythm
When you spot 'em
You go with 'em
And do that black black bottom all the day long
All day long long all day long
