Waters Ethel - Brown Baby lyrics

Waters Ethel Miscellaneous Brown Baby Spoken: Hello, folks, at last I'm back again! I'm going back to a Tennessee town Back on a visit to my coffee brown 'Way up the river We will row Up and down the levee We will go! I've got some baby waiting for me My brown baby in old Tennessee When he starts to loving That's when he finds I'm just crazy about that baby of mine! Do you suppose I ever will know Brown baby! What he has got That makes me love him so? Brown baby! What about his smile That almost gets me wild? He makes a grown-up woman act just like a child; Brown baby Here in old Tennessee! Now, he don't use no poor row [?] No farmer's skin's so tan But what he's got is all his own And he's only got the best; His eyes are just like midnight Best-looking man in town And I'll tell you why I'm crazy About my country brown But, do you suppose I ever will know Brown baby! What he has got That makes me love him so? Oh, brown baby! What about his smile That almost gets me wild? He makes a grown-up woman act just like a child; Brown baby, baby! From old Tennessee
