Subject: Lyr Add: COME RIGHT IN, SIT RIGHT DOWN
YouTube has this version from a cylinder recording:
COME RIGHT IN, SIT RIGHT DOWN As recorded by Arthur Collins, 1909
[Verse 1 and chorus same as above.]
2. Rufus borrowed fifty bones once when the boss was out, And when the boss discovered it, for vengeance he did shout. The cops caught Rufus shootin' craps and rushin' of the pail, But he was game until the man said to him at the jail:
CHORUS: Come right in, sit right down, make yourself at home. You've found the place you're looking for; there's no more need to roam. Remove your hat, sir, your coat and your vest, And prepare yourself for one long rest. Go right in, sit right down, make yourself at home.
