Песня: Cornet Man
[Fanny:]
Well--
I just put the kids to sleep
And swept the shack
Took my sweet man's satchel down
And watched him pack

I said, "Darlin', while the stove still smolders
Unpin your woman's hair and rub her shoulders."
I threw myself across the doorway
Beggin', "Stay, sweet man, stay,"

But there's more in my man's life
Than this old hag
It's Jelly-Roll Morton, and a shiny cornet
And jazzin' the rag!

The lady ain't been born
Can take the place of a horn
With a cornet man
A-goin' where there's blowin'

Trav'lin' cornet man
Just any time they call him
He'll leave his wife and kiddies
Sittin' with their tongues out

To play for peanuts in a dive
And blow his lungs out
He'll hop a choo-choo on a moment's notice
To play some dates with Billy Bates

Or rag-time Otis!
The lady ain't seen light
Can give a horn a fair fight
With a cornet man

A rootin', shootin', ever-tootin' Dapper Dan
Who carries in his satchel
A powder-blue Norfolk suit
A silver-plated wah-wah mute

There is whiskey, gamblin'--each one is a curse
But I'm up against a devil that's worse
Yes, a horn is my thorn
My trav'lin' cornet man!
Kill yourself! Tell me about it! Yeah! Yeah!

A powder-blue Norfolk suit
I said a silver-plated wah-wah mute
Oh, he's shy on height
He's short on weight

But he's the only man can make
My coffee percolate
A Dapper Dan
My cornet-playin' man

[Fanny:]
Что ж,
Я только что уложила детей спать,
Подмела в квартире,
Спустила сумку своего мужа вниз
И смотрела, как он собирается.

Я сказала: "Дорогой, пока плита не остыла,..... [открыть перевод]
