Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just step this a-way!
Now my cabbage is good, you well understand,
If you don't want my cabbage, take 'em back to Birmingham,
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just step this a-way!
Now, I've got good cabbage, ain't no mustard greens,
I raised my sprouts down in New Orleans.
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just step this a-way!
Now, I've got good cabbage, smelling mighty sweet,
I carry my cabbage to Thirty-fifth Street,
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just step this a-way!
Now, my cabbage is mighty good,
The best old cabbage in the neighborhood,
Is there anybody here want to buy my cabbage,
Just holler hey-hey!
