There'll Be A Hot Time In Old Town Tonight

There'll Be A Hot Time In Old Town Tonight - Barrelhouse Jazzband

Come along get ready wear your bran' bran' new gown

For there's go to be a meeting

In this good good old town

Where you know everybody and they all know you

And you've get a rabbit's foot to keep away de hoo doo

When you hear that preaching does begin

Bend down low for to drive away your sin

When you gets religion you want to shout and sing

There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight my baby

When you hear dem bells go ding ling ling

All join 'round and sweetly you must sing

When the verse if through in the chorus all join in

There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight

There'll be girls for ev'ry body in this good good old town

There's Miss Consola Davis

And Miss Gondolia Brown

And Miss Henry Atopeba

And she all dressed in red

I just hugged and kissed her

And to me then she said

Please oh please oh do not let me fall

You're all mine and I love you best of all

You'll be my man

Or I'll have no man at all

There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight my baby

When you hear dem bells go ding ling ling

All join 'round and sweetly you must sing

When the verse if through in the chorus all join in

There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight
