Who's Got Ma Money in Dis Gang?

'Way down in Alabama once a coon salvation army
Was a-trying for to save some culud's soul;
They assembled by a big saloon, where sinners was the thickest,
'Twas enough to make a person's blood run cold.
When the aged parson looked around to view his congregation,
A book in hand, this text which he had read;
When he was done he passed his hat to beg the crowd for money.
When a hungry-looking tramp aroused and said:
Who's got some money in this gang,
Buy a drink so I can have a dram;
Say the word, for he feels frisky,
All he wants is gin or whiskey,
Who's got some money in this gang?
Who's got some money in this gang,
Buy a drink so I can have a dram;
Say the word, for he feels frisky,.
All he wants Is gin or whiskey.
Who's got some money in this gang?
A gang of burly darkies had a crap game on the quiet
in an alley, which they thought was out of sight;
One darky lost 'most all he had, was trying to get even,
When some darky make a snatch with all his might.
Then they started in to fighting till the cops had them surrounded,
Then the coon that lost his money wasn t scared.
Then Slew-foot Johnnie Frazor, got so mad he pull'd his razor,
And slashed it in the air and loudly said:
Who's got ma money in this gang,
Tell the truth and speak out like a man;
Fears no cops, I'm in a pickle,
All I wants is ma three nickles,
Who's got ma money in this gang?
Who's got ma money in this gang.
Tell the truth and speak out like a man;
Fears no cops, I'm in a pickle,
All I wants Is my three nickles,
Who's got ma money in this gang?
