  *++Lyrics:|\\
Get you ready every body come go long wid me,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club;\\
Dar's walking for de cake and a great jubilee,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club;\\
All de walkers for de cake will skip around de room\\
Like a brass band marching thro' de mud,\\
In their patent leather pumps I know dey's gwine to shine,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club.\\
\\
//chorus: //\\
Oh my, oh me!
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club.\\
Dar's a great cake walk and a grand Jubilee,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club.\\
\\
Brudder Gardner will be dar, he is one ob de gang,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club;\\
You can eat, you can drink, but you must not use slang\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club;\\
Uncle Gineadam Jones come every Friday night,\\
He'll be dar just to pass around de grub,\\
It will surely make you laugh for 'tis a funny sight,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club.\\
\\
Dar's Waydown Bebee who's very wide awake,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club;\\
Has swore to de judge he would take off de cake,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club;\\
He walked mighty well for a man ob his size,\\
And he showed dat he wasn't any scrub,\\
But Mose Whangadoodle come and took de prize,\\
Down at de Lime-Kiln Club.\\
\\
