[1st verse:] It's eleven forty-five Just as sure as you're alive Just see those minstrel folks Parading up the Avenue two by two They've been billed all over town Ev'ry one of them a clown Why, I can hear them coming up the street Honey, you better come down [Refrain:] Here they come, here they come Marching to the big bass drum Come and see those minstrels parade In their costumes covered with braid Hear those coons playing tunes Like they should be played From ev'ry dwelling Folks will come To hear them telling Lots of funny riddles at the old town hall One and all Come on and watch the minstrel parade [2nd verse:] Get your tickets for the show Letras de cancionesOh, my honey, if you go You'll know the reason why A chicken goes across the street It's a treat Paint your face up with a smile Get yourself rigged up in style They're only here to play a one night stand Honey, you better come down From Letras Mania
