Bessie Smith - Whoa, Tillie, Take Your Time lyrics

Tillie Brown was a dancing fool
 Spent her time in a dancing school
 When the band would play Tillie would start right in to sway First one out on the ballroom floor
 She never got enough, she just craved for more
 When she start to sway
 All the girls and boys would say
 Whoa, Tillie, take your time Whoa, Tillie, take your time There ain't no use to hurrying 'cause you wanna prance You've got all night to do that dance Whoa, Tillie, lay 'em down
 Whoa, Tillie Brown
 You don't know what to shake
 When you shake
 What to break Whoa, Tillie, take your time Whoa, Tillie, take your time Whoa, Tillie, take your time
 There ain't no use to hurrying 'cause you wanna prance
 Look out there, Tillie, you got all night to do that dance Whoa, Tillie, lay 'em down
Whoa, Tillie, Tillie Brown
 You don't know what to shake
When you shake What to break
 Whoa, Tillie, take your time
