Memphis Jug Band with Hattie Hart (1930)
Original lyrics-
Papa’s Got Your Bath Water On
Shall you tell me who’s the flapper I see you with every night?
And she’s vampin’ so hard, I’m bound to lose my appetite
That’s my brownskin mama, better known as Miss Jennie Rice
I’m going to make you wish you never had been born
I just went uptown, got my gun out of pawn
Don’t start nothing, baby, because your papa’s got your bath water on
If you don’t have me, papa, you won’t have no gal at all
And it seems all the women you meet are bound to fall
Now if you don’t believe I’m a jockey you can back your mule up in my stall
Come on, old papa, ‘cause mama ain’t mad at you
But tell me makes you keep me so worried and blue
Your daddy’s interested, mama, but it ain’t got his work to do
