The Brown-skin Girl (In The Calico Gown) - Duke Ellington
A penny for the moon, a nickel for a dream,
A quarter for a tune like the Old Mill Stream
But I'd give a dollar and my heart to foller to
The Brown-Skin Gal In The Calico Gown.
A puzzler for a pal
A jack-knife for a song, a garter for a gal
In a blue sarong
But I'd give a necklace because I'm reckless
For a kiss from the miss in the Calico Gown.
Haven't much use for worldly goods
Robin Hood's for me; if my love's worth a nickel,
It's worth a Peso mine for the giving;
Hers for the say so
A penny for a cart to take her out to dine
A scissor cuts a heart on a valentine
Then a sky-blue bonnet with pink ribbons on it
For The Brown-Skin Gal In The Calico Gown.
For The Brown-Skin Gal In The Calico Gown.
