HERE ARE THE LYRICS:
Old man Rosenthal lay sick in bed
Soon the doctor came around and said
"No use crying, the man is dying. He can't live very long!"
"Send my son here to my side," they heard the old man say
"I've got something to tell him before I pass away"
Soon his son was sitting by his bed
"What's the matter, Papa dear?" he said
The old man said, "My son, before my days are done
I want you to know:
[chorus:]
Cohen owes me ninety-seven dollars
And it's up to you to see that Cohen pays
I sold a lot of goods to Rosenstein and Sons
On an I.O.U. for ninety days
Levi brothers don't get any credit
They owe me for one hundred yards of lace
If you promise me, my son, you'll collect from ev'ry one
I can die with a smile on my face"
[2nd verse:]
Old man Rosenthal is better now
He just simply wouldn't die somehow
He is healthy and very wealthy since he got out of bed
Such a change you never saw, he's got such rosy cheeks
He picks up in just one week what should take weeks and weeks
Ev'ryone who knew that he was sick
Couldn't tell how he got well so quick
They went and asked him to explain how he pulled through
Rosenthal replied:
[2nd chorus:]
Cohen owed me ninety-seven dollars
And my son went out and made poor Cohen pay
A bill was owed to me by Rosenstein and Sons
And they settled on that very day
What could my son with all that money
If I should leave it all and say goodbye?
It's all right to pass away, but when people start to pay
That's no time for a bus'nessman to die

"Baltimore" jazz jam session in hotel lobby
The traditional jazz tune "Baltimore" (does anyone know the origin of the tune?) is played here by an impromptu ensemble:
Craig Ventresco on guitar. He has played with the Bo Grumpus Trio, has his own solo CD, and also plays with Merideth Axelrod (YouTube's "meredithanthraxelrod").
http://www.myspace.com/craigventrescoandmeredithaxelrod
Brad Kay on cornet. Brad is one of Janet Klein's parlor boys and does solo piano work too.

Julia Riley on flute. Julia plays with the Raspberry Jam Band (which doesn't have a web site or any albums yet).
Andrew Barrett (YouTube's "KawhackitaRag") on washboard.
Shortly afterward, the jam session grew with the addition of a violin, a tuba, and a second washboard, all sitting and standing around in the Red Lion hotel lobby in Sacramento.
