Vat's de Brice of Peans, Jake?
Written and sung by (Jus Williams.

Dough peans you can see I sell,
Und I've got a few;
I makes money, too, as veil,
So help me gracious, too!
Put de poys make fun of me
Ven I do go out;
I can't valk along de shtreet,
Put I hear dem shout:

Chorus.
"Vat's de brice of peans, Jake? vat's de brice of peans?"
I vonder iff dey dinks I vas a dem oft horse marine;
"Vat's de brice of peans, Jake? vat's de brice of peans?"
Iff I only catch dem vonce, I find out vat dat meau9.

Von night dey shtole my grey mare,

Den de jury did got out,
Put come back right avay;
Ven de shudge says: "Now speak out!"
De foreman did say:-Chorus.

Only for dat crowd;
Von night I vas mit my beau,

Und ve had a fight.
