I've got a brownskin woman, she lives up on that hill
I've got a brownskin woman, she lives up on that hill
Lord, that fool's tryin' to quit me, man, but I love her still
She wears a box-back middy, Lord, and a gambolin' striped hose
She wears a box-back middy, a gambolin' striped hose
She's got a new way of gettin' down, you have to get low as a toad
Mmmm,mmmmm
Lord, she got a new way of gettin' down, you have to get low as a toad
Some of these women, I just can't understand
Some of you women, I just can't understand
They cook cornbread for their husband, and biscuits for their man *

Really beautiful

[@professorskippy]

do you do your own scans of the labels?

[@Valery5852]

Yes, I do them myself

If Someone Records this Digitally ,All the Noise Can Be Removed!
Maybe it Has Already Been Done ,
Unless this is an Extremely Rare Recording !
You Can Make a Inquiry to the Audio Engineering Society,
They May Be Able to Help!

Thank You, Vincentbuccieri!

A nice advice. But if people do that,it takes away the originality of the ancient recording and makes it sound cold,I'm afraid.🎉🎉🎉😊
