歌曲歌詞
At the far end of the midway
By the double ferris wheel
Theres a band that plays so snakey
You can't help how you feel
Emmie mae ran away
With a man as dark as night
You can see him if you go there
Second trumpet to the right
They play night train
So snakey
Black girls dancing
Long and lanky
Barkers barking
Step right up folks
The show is about to begin
Its harlem in havana time
Step right in
Silver spangles
See em dangle in the farm boys eyes
Hootchie kootchie
Auntie ruthie wouldve cried
If she knew we were on the inside
When emmie mae ran away
She came back a bottle blonde
God the gossips had a gourmet feast
Chomping on how she was born
But miracle of miracles
Cuz we were underage
She got us nearly front row seats
To the right side of the stage
See that tall girl
Thats a man
That one too
Big yellow feather fan
Barkers barking
Step right up folks
The show is about to begin
Its harlem in havana time
Step right in
Silver spangles
See em dangle in the farm boys eyes
Hootchie kootchie
Auntie ruthie wouldve died
If she knew we were on the inside
