Sweet Georgia Brown Lyrics

She just got here yesterday
Things are hot here now, they say
There's a big change in town
Gals are jealous, there's no doubt

Still, the fellows rave about
Sweet, sweet Georgia Brown
And ever since she came
The colored folks all claim, "Say"

No gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown
Two left feet, oh, so neat
Has Sweet Georgia Brown
They all sigh, and want to die

For Sweet Georgia Brown
I'll tell you just why
You know I don't lie, not much:
It's been said

She knocks 'em dead
When she lands in town
Since she came
Why it's a shame

How she cools them down
Fellows she can't get
Are fellows she ain't met
Georgia claimed her, Georgia named her

Sweet Georgia Brown
No gal made has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown
Two left feet, oh, so neat
Has Sweet Georgia Brown

They all sigh, and want to die
For Sweet Georgia Brown
I'll tell you just why
You know I don't lie; not much:

All those gifts some courters give
To Sweet Georgia Brown
They buy clothes at fashion shows
With one dollar down

Oh, boy! Tip your hat
Oh, joy! She's the cat
Who's that, Mister?
'Tain't a sister

Sweet Georgia Brown
