Ah used to be a bad coon
as you'd evah desiah to see
de folks all said:
Dat sad coon will die rathah suddenly."
But, now Ah am a glad coon
and as happy as ah can be.
HahHummphhah my babe;
ah'm a diff'rent niggah now
'cause ah met mah yaller gal.

Ah loves mah yaller gal,
mah yaller Sal, mah coon
she is mah baby,
and we may be married soon
which will ecays'n such a raggin' honeymoon
dat all Dark Town wlll remembah Sal
she is de sweetest and de neatest thing
ah know.
and ah am proud to be allowed to be her beau;
upon my honey, all mah money ah will blow
for I cert'nly love mah yaller gal.

For she's mah yaller gal,
mah yaller Sal, mah coon
she is mah baby,
and we may be married soon
which will ecays'n such a raggin' honeymoon
dat all Dark Town wlll remembah Sal
she is de sweetest and de neatest thing
ah know.
and ah am proud to be allowed to be her beau;
upon my honey, all mah money ah will blow
for I cert'nly love mah yaller gal.

She has a way abo't her
dat jess cert'nly is grand to see,
mah tongue can't say abo't her,
ah ah thinks of inside of me.
don't you'ns get gay abo't her,
or dar's trouble between us, see!!
HahHummphhah my babe;
ah'm a diff'rent niggah now
'cause ah met mah yaller gal.

Ah loves mah yaller gal,
mah yaller Sal, mah coon
she is mah baby,
and we may be married soon
which will ecays'n such a raggin' honeymoon
dat all Dark Town wlll remembah Sal
she is de sweetest and de neatest thing
ah know.
and ah am proud to be allowed to be her beau;
upon my honey, all mah money ah will blow
for I cert'nly love mah yaller gal.

For she's mah yaller gal,
mah yaller Sal, mah coon
she is mah baby,
and we may be married soon
which will ecays'n such a raggin' honeymoon
dat all Dark Town wlll remembah Sal
she is de sweetest and de neatest thing

and ah am proud to be allowed to be her beau;
upon my honey, all mah money ah will blow
for I cert'nly love mah yaller gal.
