Dis! Pos! Zes! Means Move 1904

Bill Williams down on easy street
is a coon that's hard to beat,
for laz'ness he's the thirty third degree.
To Jackson's boarding house he went,
and registered without a cent,
and stayed for six months
on "Oh Promise Me."
But Jackson he got sore
tacked this note on Bill's door.

D i s! P o s! Z e s!
dispossessed you got to mooove
Not a cent, for your rent
have you spent since you've been here,
I can prooove,
Now just prepare your self to go,
And face that chilly wind and snow,
D i s! P o s! Z e s!
dispossessed means move.

Bill saw the sign tacked on his door, says,
My, I'm gettin' poplar sho,
I know this letter's from Miss Mandy Greene.
But this big word I can't make out,
it's something good to eat no doubt
I'll go and ask Miss Mandy
what it means.
But Mandy looked confused
she read to Bill the news.

D i s! P o s! Z e s!
dispossessed you got to mooove
Not a cent, for your rent
have you spent since you've been here,
I can prooove,
Now just prepare your self to go,
And face that chilly wind and snow,
D i s! P o s! Z e s!
dispossessed means move.

D i s! P o s! Z e s!
dispossessed you got to mooove
Not a cent, for your rent
have you spent since you've been here,
I can prooove,
Now just prepare your self to go,
And face that chilly wind and snow,
D i s! P o s! Z e s!
dispossessed means move.
