I can't walk neither can I talk
Just gettin' back from the state of old New York
One mornin' before day
Flossie, oh, Flossie, now what is the matter?
Walked all the way from old Cincinnati
One mornin' before day
If I lose, let me lose. I don't care how much I lose.
If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win
a dime for my baby, she keeps money all the time.
The blood was a-runnin' and I was runnin',
too, to give my feet some exercise. I had
nothin' else to do one mornin' before day.
If I lose, let me lose. I don't care how much I lose.
If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win
a dime for my baby, she keeps money all the time.
Yeah, the peas was so greasy, the meat was so fat.
The boys was fightin' the Spaniards while I was
fightin' that one mornin' just before day.
If I lose, let me lose. I don't care how much I lose.
If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win
a dime for my baby, she keeps money all the time.
