Gin 1901 'Champagne Charlie'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 16 Nov 2004

When I'm troubled and my mind's upset,
And I don't know what I'm gwine to do,
When my bones ache wid de rheumatics
and de pains are shootin' thro' and thro'
I don't go to no medicine man
to get no patent heather pills
I got a superscription of a my own,
dat never fails to cure my ills.

It's a little bit o' gin
in a little cup of tin,
you take a little "G"
a little "I"
a little "N"
then you got a little gin,
"Gin"

It's a little bit o' gin
in a little cup of tin,
you take a little "G"
a little "I"
a little "N"
then you got a little gin,
"Gin."

When some people get a little pain,
why dey tear off to the doctor shop.
If dey bought the medicine dat I prescribe,
den de doctor bus'ness sho' would stop
dem pills and liniments and plasters too,
dey ain't a blessed thing but fakes,
when ever I'm a ailin' wid a complaint
de only thing I ever takes

It's a little bit o' gin
in a little cup of tin,
you take a little "G"
a little "I"
a little "N"
then you got a little gin,
"Gin"

It's a little bit o' gin
in a little cup of tin,
you take a little "G"
a little "I"
a little "N"
then you got a little gin,
"Gin."
