original broadway cast of funny girl - cornet man lyrics
[f-nny, spoken]
well, hmm…
(sung)
i just put the kids to sleep
and swept the shack
took my sweet man’s satchel down
and watched him pack
i said, “darling, while the stove still smolders
unpin your woman’s hair and rub her shoulders”
i threw myself across the doorway
begging, “stay, sweet man, stay”
but there’s more in my man’s life
than this old hag
it’s jelly roll morton
and a shiny cornet
and jazzin’ the rag
the lady ain’t been born
can take the place of a h-rn
with a cornet man
a-goin’ where there’s blowin’
trav’lin’ cornet man
just anytime they call him
he’ll leave his wife and kiddies
sittin’ with their tongues out
to play for peanuts in a dive
and blow his lungs out
he’ll hop a choo-choo on a moment’s notice
to play some dates with billy bates
or rag-time otis
the lady ain’t seen light
can give a h-rn a fair fight
with a cornet man
a rootin’, shootin’, ever-tootin’ dapper dan
who carries in his satchel
a powder-blue norfolk suit
a silver-plated wah-wah mute
there is whiskey, gamblin’ – each one is a curse
but i’m up against a devil that’s worse
yes, a h-rn is my th-rn
my trav’lin’ cornet man
k!ll yourself!
tell me about it!
yeah! yeah!
woo!
yeah! yeah!
a powder-blue norfolk suit
i said a silver-plated wah-wah mute
oh, he’s shy on height
he’s short on weight
but he’s the only man can make my coffee perculate
a dapper dan
my cornet-playin’ man
woo!
