Strut Miss Lizzie

At the barber's ball in the barber's hall
All the dusky belles were there
Such prancing, glancing, strutting and dancing
They were doing for fair
All the belles and beaus prancing on their toes
Tried to do the cake walk swell
The midnight blonde came prancing on
They were heard to yell
Won't you strut miss Lizzie
Get busy, I want to see you walk
For the folks all state the way you syncopate
Is the whole town talk
When you move so pretty, it's a pity
The other girlies frown
But the men you meet
Like the way you shake your feet
Oh you knock 'em dizzy
Strut miss Lizzie Brown
Go down the street, by the school
Pack your feet you steppin' fool!
Strut your stuff, use your 'Kerch'
Just trot your tootsies by the church!
Through the alley, dodge the cans
Shake Miss Sallie's pots and pans
Cool your dog, we're comin' through
Except for Lennox Avenue!
Won't you strut miss Lizzie
Get busy, I want to see you walk
For the folks all state the way you syncopate
Is the whole town talk
When you move so pretty, it's a pity
The other girlies frown
But the men you meet
Like the way you shake your feet
Oh you knock 'em dizzy
Strut miss Lizzie Brown
I'll bet you've got the cutest little strut in town!
