Sweet Georgia Brown with the Original 1925 Lyrics--pl Lee Sims US Music Roll

Sweet Georgia Brown was a hit song in 1925 that was written by Maceo Pinkard and Ken Casey, although the white bandleader Ben Bernie somehow had his name added on. This roll is played by Lee Sims, a great pianist of the 1920's. Because the song is about an irrrestible Black prostitute, the lyrics have been somewhat changed over the years so that they will not be offensive to even the stupidest moron. Here are the original lyrics: (Verse 1) She just got here yesterday----Things are hot here now they say---- There's----A big change in town----Gals are jealous, there's no doubt----Still the fellows rave about----Sweet, Sweet Georgia Brown----And ever since she came to town, the colored folks all claim----(Chorus 1) Say, no gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown----Two left feet but oh so neat has Sweet Georgia Brown.----They all sigh, and wanna die for Sweet Georgia Brown----I'll tell you just why----You know I don't lie----Not much----It's been said she knocks 'em dead when she gets in town----Since she came why it's a shame how she cools 'em down---- Fellas she can't get are fellas she aint met----Georgia claimed her, Georgia named her Sweet Georgia Brown. (Verse 2) Brown skin gals you'll get the blues---- Brown skin pals you'll surely lose----And---- There's but one excuse---- Now I've told you who she was---- And I told you what she does----Hand----This gal her dues----This colored maiden's prayer----Is answered anywhere (Chorus 2) Say, no gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown----Two left feet but oh so neat has Sweet Georgia Brown.----They all sigh, and wanna die for Sweet Georgia Brown----I'll tell you just why----You know I don't lie----Not much----It's been said she knocks 'em dead when she gets in town---- All those tips----The Porter slips----To Sweet Georgia Brown----They buy clothes at fashion shows with one dollar down----Oh boy, tip your hats----Oh joy, she's the cat's---Who's that, mister?----'Taint her sister-- Sweet Georgia Brown. PS: If the line "she's the cat's" has you wondering, back in the '20's there was an expression "The cat's pajamas" that roughly corresponds to our expression "Awesome".
