- The Courtship Lyrics [MOTHER] Sarah, let me take him for a while. You haven't slept. [There is a knock at the door] [MOTHER] Yes? [COALHOUSE] I'm looking for a woman of color whose name is Sarah. She is said to reside in one of these houses. [LITTLE BOY] She's here. She's living in our attic. [COALHOUSE] Will you tell her, please that Mr. Coalhouse Walker Jr., desires to speak with her? [MOTHER] Certainly. Please wait here. [LITTLE BOY] This is Sarah's baby. You want a cookie? [MOTHER] Sarah, you have a caller. A Mr. Walker. Will you come down to the kitchen? [SARAH] No Ma'am. Send him away, please. [MOTHER] Well, that's the most words you've spoken since you've been here. [COALHOUSE] Hmmm... [MOTHER] Sarah is unable to see you. Good day. [COALHOUSE] Thank you Ma'am. Tell her I'll come back next Sunday. [GRANDFATHER] Such was the coming of the colored man in the car to Broadview Avenue. [ALL] Each Sunday, he'd come driving. Curtains would part, Neighbours would peek. [MOTHER] I'm sorry, Mr. Walker. Sarah still will not receive you. [COALHOUSE] Will you see that she gets these flowers, Ma'am? [MOTHER, ALL] Week after week! And aftyer weeks of Sundays [MOTHER] Sending him off seemed a crime... Mr. Walker, it must be a long drive for you. Perhaps you would like a cup of tea before you go? [COALHOUSE] This piano is badly in need of a tuning. [MOTHER] Oh yes. We are terrible about that. [GRANDFATHER] Do you know any coon songs? [COALHOUSE] Coon songs are made for Minstrel shows. White men sing them in blackface. This is called Ragtime.
