"Juba Juba", a popular song about the Juba :

Juba dis and Juba dat,

and Juba killed da yellow cat,

You sift the meal and ya gimme the husk,

you bake the bread and ya gimme the crust,

you eat the meat and ya gimme the skin,

and that's the way,

my mama's troubles begin

A song about the hambone from Step it Down (v.s.):

Hambone Hambone pat him on the shoulder

If you get a pretty girl, I'll show you how to hold her.

Hambone, Hambone, where have you been?

All 'round the world and back again.

Hambone, Hambone, what did you do?

I got a train and I fairly flew.

Hambone, Hambone where did you go?

I hopped up to Miss Lucy's door.

I asked Miss Lucy would she marry me.

(falsetto)"Well I don't care if Papa don't care!"

First come in was Mister Snake,

He crawled all over that wedding cake.

Next walked in was Mister Tick,

He ate so much it made him sick.

Next walked in was Mister Coon,

We asked him to sing us a wedding tune,

Now Ham-....

Now Ham....
