Big Ben/C.C. Rider

Eleanora, you're late again. Girl, you done missed two tricks already. You better get the spirit, sister, and get yourself on up them steps and quit your lollygagging
Didn't you mama teach you how to close doors? If you don't want this job, somebody else sure do

Ooo wee, you fine, young thing!
You're new in the neighborhood. So, honey, I got to love you real good!
Ooh, looky here what Lorraine done sent to me
I never accomplished any great feats, but you know something, baby? I'm something еlse under them sheets!
You see my fathеr was a jockey, and he taught me how to ride
He said, Big Ben, you got to get it from side to side!
Now, in case you don't know who I am, I'm Big Ben, baby! Yeah, the lover-man!
We gonna have ourselves a ball tonight. Lorraine done sent me this fine dinner. Young and tender. This is where her head was
Won't be there when I get through. 'Cause, see, I'm from the city, and I'm gonna kiss your little titty, haha!
Young, and fine, and mellow. Light as a feather
Big Ben told all his men, "Don't you take no numbers after half past ten!"
What's wrong with you, woman?

Ain't nothing personal, mister, but I just quit the business

Ain't this a killer? Lorraine! Hey, Lorraine! Lorraine!

What's happening? Who's making all that noise up there?

He said his name is Big Ben

Big Ben? Ain't you supposed to be upstairs with Big Ben?

I ain't doing it

What you mean you ain't doing it, girl? You give my place a bad name. Big Ben's the best customer I got. You can't do that. All the girls love Big Ben
He's my best customer, and I'm trying to make something out of you. I sent him up to you
Now, what's the matter with you, girl? You better get the spirit, sister, and get on back upstairs and do your work. The Lord knows I'm trying to help you ...

Miss Edson, honey, I done quit

Done quit?
Well, you get on away from around here, then. 'Cause you ain't nothing. You ain't never been nothing, and you ain't gonna be nothing. 'Cause you don't go messing like that with Big Ben

That's right!
