This is the hat that I wore in St.
Louis when Judy and I did the cakewalk.
And I had always admired this hat.
So it had come about because I had, first of all, wanted a red velvet dress that she wore in the ballrooms.
How old were you when that happened?
I was seven.
And I wanted the dress like Judy's.
Well, after the movie, Judy had the dress made for me.
And I kept wearing this dress to the commissary where we would go to eat.
The red velvet dress that Judy gave me and two guns from Bell Star.
And Mr.
Mayor said, if I see that red velvet dress one more time, I'm eating in St.
Louis, so I'm going to [E] give you a racehorse.
Well, he gave me [N] the racehorse, but it started winning races, so he took it back.
I went to Judy and I cried and I said, I don't have my racehorse.
And Mr.
Mayor took my red velvet dress.
He said, well, that's Mr.
Mayor for you, but I have something else for you.
And this is the straw hat from the Cakewalk.
That you're holding right there?
Yeah, and here it is.
And so she said, I hope this makes up for your racehorse.
She was so kind and so sweet to children.
Cakewalk, the bastard has her with me.
No!
Oh, God!

A mark of passion once she [C#m] made [F#]
upon his [B] ulu from [E] Matabulu.
And every morning [B] he would [E] be down underneath [B] the bamboo.
[G#] Awake there his [C#m] love to see.
[F#] And then to her [B]
he'd sing.
Vamp.
[E]
If you like me like [A] I like [E] you and we [A] like her both [E] the same.
[B] I like to say this every day, I like to [E] change your name.
Cause I [A] love you [E] and love her you too and if you love me.
[B] One leaves two, you leave one [G#m] under the bamboo tree.
