Stop That Bearcat Sadie 1912

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 09 Aug 2005

Since Sadie Cohn, has come back home,
from San Francisco town,
she ain't the same old Sadie,
'cause she don't act like a lady,
she talks and sings,
and does such things
that makes me pull my hair,
she calls me Kiddo
and her mother Chicken
and she dances the Grizzly Bear,
so like a father I said Sadie dear
please quit your Frisco habits,
listen here.

Sadie, Sadie, Sadie,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.
Stop it quick!
I say you should have better sense.
Ev'ry time you move your shoulders
to the ceiling,
I forget you are my daughter,
and I get a nervous feeling.
Ev'ry day I hear you sing a Rag time song,
Like brass band Alexander,
come along, come along,
in the night I get a scare,
when you holler: "It's a Bear,"
Sadie, be a lady,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.

Sadie, Sadie, Sadie,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.
Stop it quick!
I say you should have better sense.
Ev'ry time you move your shoulders
to the ceiling,
I forget you are my daughter,
and I get a nervous feeling.
Ev'ry day I hear you sing a Rag time song,
Like brass band Alexander,
come along, come along,
in the night I get a scare,
when you holler: "It's a Bear,"
Sadie, be a lady,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.

She talks a lot 'bout Turkey Trots
and Tommy Texas swings
those dances have a motion
just like the Atlantic Ocean,
Sadie's got a beau, named Bronco Joe
he wears a red wool shirt,
and since my Sadie came back home from Frisco
she is wearing a Harem skirt,
well from her waist up she's a lady, yes,
Oi! but from her waist down,
well it's foolishness.

Sadie, Sadie, Sadie,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.
Stop it quick!
I say you should have better sense.
Ev'ry time you move your shoulders
to the ceiling,
I forget you are my daughter,
and I get a nervous feeling.
Ev'ry day I hear you sing a Rag time song,
Like brass band Alexander,
come along, come along,
in the night I get a scare,
when you holler: "It's a Bear,"
Sadie, be a lady,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.

Sadie, Sadie, Sadie,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.
Stop it quick!
I say you should have better sense.
Ev'ry time you move your shoulders
to the ceiling,
I forget you are my daughter,
and I get a nervous feeling.
Ev'ry day I hear you sing a Rag time song,
Like brass band Alexander,
come along, come along,
in the night I get a scare,
when you holler: "It's a Bear,"
Sadie, be a lady,
stop that Bear Cat Dance.
