Yup. This is from Bessie Smith's
I Need A Little Sugar In My Bowl recorded in 1931.
What's the matter, hard papa?
Come on and save you mama's soul
'Cause I need a little sugar, in my bowl, doggone it,
I need a little sugar in my bowl
I need a little sugar, in my bowl,
I need a little hot dog, between my rolls
You gettin' different, I've been told,
move your finger, drop something in my bowl
I need a little steam-heat on my floor,
Maybe I can fix things up, so they'll go
Get off your knees, I can't see what you're drivin' at!
It's dark down there! Looks like a snake!
C'mon here and drop somethin' here in my bowl,
Stop your foolin', and drop somethin', in my bowl...
