SPORTING LIFE
 That`s the thing, ain` it? An` membuh there`s.
 where that come from. Listen: There`s a boat dat`s
 leavin` soon for New York. Come wid me, dat`s where
 we belong, sister.
 You an` me kin live dat high life in New York.
 Come wid me, dere you can`t go wrong, sister.
 I`ll buy you de swellest mansion
 Up on upper Fi`th Avenue
 An` through Harlem we`ll go struttin`,
 We`ll go astruttin`,
 An` dere`ll be nuttin`
 Too good for you.
 I`ll dress you in silks and satins
 In de latest Paris styles.
 And de blues you`ll be forgettin`,
 You`ll be forgettin`,
 There`ll be no frettin`
 Jes nothin` but smiles.
 Come along wid me, Hey dat`s de place,
 Don`t be a fool, come along, come along.
 There`s a boat dat`s leavin` soon for New York
 Come wid me, dat`s where we belong, sister,
 Dat`s where we belong! Come on, Bess!

 BESS
 You low, crawlin` hound! Get away from my door, I tells
 you, leave it, you rattlesnake. Dat`s what you is,
 a rattlesnake!
