A Hot Time In the Old Town

Melody - Theo. A. Metz, 1896

Joe Hayden

Come along get you ready
Wear your bran, bran new gown,
For dere's gwine to be a meeting
In that good, good old town,
Where you knowed ev'ry body,
And they all knowed you,
And you've got a rabbits foot
To keep away the hoodo;

Where you hear
That the preaching does begin,
Bend down low
For to drive away your sin
And when you gets religion,
You want to shout and sing,
There'll be a hot time in the old town
Tonight, my baby.
There'll be girls for ev'ry body
In that good, good old town,
For dere's Miss Consola Davis
An dere's Miss Gondolia Brown;
And dere's Miss Johanna Beasly
She am dressed all in red,
I just hugged her and I 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,
And you must be my man,
Or I'll have no man at all,
There'll be a hot time in the old town
Tonight, my baby.

Refrain:
When you hear
Dem a bells go ding, ling ling,
All join 'round
And sweetly you must sing,
And when the verse am through,
In the chorus all join in,
There'll be a hot time
In the old town tonight.
A parody:
Late last night
When we were all in bed,
Mrs. O'Leary
Left a lantern in the shed.
The cow kicked it over,
Then winked her eye and said
"There'll be a hot time
In the old town tonight!"
