[00:00:00] Fat Sam from Birmingham - Louis Jordan (路易斯·乔丹)

[00:00:02] Birmingham

[00:00:05] There's Sam

[00:00:08] If you ever get down to Birmingham

[00:00:11] Stop off and see my friend Fat Sam

[00:00:14] He's a little butter-ball who aims to please

[00:00:17] With him every night is like New Year's Eve

[00:00:19] You'll find him on the corner

[00:00:21] Front of Shorter's bar

[00:00:22] With a box-back coat and a big cigar

[00:00:25] He's always wearing a big wide-brim

[00:00:27] Just tell him I sent you and man you' in

[00:00:31] Fat Sam from Birmingham always on the ball

[00:00:36] Fat Sam from Birmingham as wide as he is tall

[00:00:51] If you're on the loose and you wanna play

[00:00:55] Sam's the man to show you the way

[00:00:57] 'Cause all the chicks fall for his groovy line

[00:01:00] And he's ready for a party any old time

[00:01:02] If you get a little hungry and you wanna eat

[00:01:05] Tell Sam all about it and he'll give you a treat

[00:01:08] Neck-bones and beans and catfish too

[00:01:10] And what could be better than a good beef stew

[00:01:14] Fat Sam from Birmingham always on the ball

[00:01:19] Fat Sam from Birmingham as wide as he is tall

[00:01:34] He'll tell you 'bout money he's made and spent

[00:01:37] And if you're down on your luck

[00:01:38] He'll pay your rent

[00:01:40] He'll drink and fight and laugh and sing

[00:01:42] 'Cause the world don't owe him a dog-gone thing

[00:01:45] He plays poker coon-can and skin

[00:01:48] But listen all you gamblin' men

[00:01:51] If you're lookin' around for a real soft touch

[00:01:53] Don't mess with Sam 'cause he's much too much

[00:01:57] Fat Sam from Birmingham always on the ball

[00:02:02] Fat Sam from Birmingham as wide as he is tall

[00:02:17] Now big sister Bessie used to spend her days

[00:02:21] Preachin' to Sam to change his ways;

[00:02:23] She followed him around with a book in her hand

[00:02:26] Tryin' to make Sam a righteous man

[00:02:28] The Sunday congregation was all put out

[00:02:31] When big sister Bessie jumped up to shout

[00:02:34] She used to think preaching was her line

[00:02:36] But Jack since she met Sam

[00:02:38] She changed her mind

[00:02:40] Fat Sam from Birmingham always on the ball

[00:02:45] Fat Sam from Birmingham as wide as he is tall

[00:02:53] That's Sam from 'Bam
