[00:01.13] | Cake Walkin' Babies (From Home) Lyrics |
[00:01.47] | Bessie Smith |
[00:07.41] | |
[00:10.62] | Cake walkers may come, cake walkers may go, |
[00:15.62] | but I wanna tell you 'bout a couple I know |
[00:21.75] | High steppin' pair, Debonair |
[00:27.30] | When it comes for bus'ness not a soul can compare |
[00:32.83] | Here they come, look at 'em, demonstratin', |
[00:38.55] | goin' some, ain't they syncopatin'? |
[00:44.34] | Talk of the town, teasin' brown pickin' 'em up and layin' 'em down |
[00:55.03] | Dancin' fools ain't they demonstratin'? |
[00:59.83] | They're a class of their own |
[01:04.65] | Now the only way to win is to cheat 'em, |
[01:10.67] | you may tie 'em but you'll never beat 'em |
[01:15.89] | Strut your stuff |
[01:20.43] | they're the cake walkin' babies from home |
[01:29.63] | |
[02:16.98] | goin' some, ain't they demonstratin'? |
[02:23.49] | Talk of the town, teasin' brown pickin' 'em up and layin' 'em down |
[02:33.22] | Dancin' fools ain't they syncopatin' |
[02:38.39] | They're a class of their own |
[02:48.03] | Now the only way to win is to cheat 'em, |
[02:54.25] | you may tie 'em but you'll never beat 'em |
[02:59.54] | Strut your stuff, strut your stuff, cake walkin' babies from home |
[03:08.55] | |
