Lyrics
Go and meet yer Honey
At the Picaninnies’ Jubilee tonight
All de yaller gals of old Black town
Are gwine to be there
And wont there be a terrible sight
Dars gwine to be a cake walk
Now we give you one and all and invite
To dance and sing by the light of the moon
At the Pickaninnies Jubilee tonight
