From the recording at the Internet Archive:


SAM THE HOT DOG MAN
As recorded by Lil Johnson on Vocalion 03241, 1936.

I’m goin’ down south in Alabam’,
Lookin’ for a man by the name of Sam.
He’s got good hot dog.
Oh, he’s got good hot dog.
Oh, he’s got good hot dog, honey, in his hot dog stand.

You can drink your coffee, eat your jelly roll,
But if you take Sam’s hot dog, it’ll satisfy your soul,
’Cause he’s got good hot dog.
Oh, he’s got good hot dog.
Oh, he’s got good hot dog, honey, in his hot dog stand.

Sam makes a-plenty o’ money and spends it fast.
Women don’t do nothin’ but sit on they yas-yas-yas
And wait for Sam’s hot dog.
Oh, and wait for Sam’s hot dog.
Oh, they wait for Sam’s hot dog, honey, in his hot dog stand

SPOKEN: Yes, he’s got good hot dog.
I don’t mean no weenie.

Sam got the best hot dog in this town.
I like the way he serves it; he goes round and round
Baby, with his hot dog.
Baby, with his hot dog.
Baby, with his hot dog, honey, in his hot dog stand.

When you get enough hot dog, stop and rest it awhile
If you want any mo’, Sam’ll serve you with a smile,
Baby, with his hot dog.
Baby, with his hot dog.
Baby, with his hot dog, honey, in his hot dog stand.

He’s at my house last night and brought me one.
I want about his hot dog, the son of a gun.
I want about his hot dog.
I want about his hot dog.
Oh, I want about his hot dog, honey, in his hot dog stand.

Late last night bout half past twelve,
Women shouted Sam; they was raisin’ hell
Just about his hot dog.
Just about his hot dog.
Just about his hot dog, honey, in his hot dog stand.
