Lyrics:
First verse
You's ma little black baby wid a turned up nose, An' a little bunch o' wool upon yo' head; You's got dimples in yo' elbows an' wrinkles in yo' toes, An' a mouf lak a watermelyon red.First
Chorus
You's ma sweet, sweet pertater, you's ma ripe, ripe termater, You's ma purty little black sugar ball; You's a little bit o' honey dat de bees ain't foun', You's ma own pickaninny - dat's all!
Second verse
You's de onlies' little darlin' in de whole roun' worl', An' you's got yo' little fingahs on my heart; You's ma little bit o' woolly headed brown eyed gal Dat I'se always longin' for when we're apart.
Second Chorus
For I doan' know what I'd do if it wasn't jes' fo' you, You's ma purty little black sugar ball; You's a little bit o' honey dat de bees ain't foun', You's ma own pickaninny - dat's all!
