Buffalo Soldier, Won't You Come Out Tonight. (1 Viewer)

Buffalo soldier, won't you come out tonight?
Come out tonight, Come out tonight?
Buffalo soldier, won't you come out tonight,
And dance by the light of the moon.

-- with apologies to blackface minstrel John Hodges, who wrote and published the song in 1844. The song was widely popular and as a result minstrels altered the lyrics to suit the local audience, so it might be performed as "New York Gals" in New York City or "Boston Gals" in Boston. The best-known version is named after the city of "Buffalo."

Figure by Trophy (from the Wild West range)

Isn't that "Buffalo Girl" ?

No, the original is "Gal," not "Girl." :smile2:

Nice figure and nice pose; I like the scarf flying with the wind, it gives the impression of fast moving....And it s interesting it is a black man.
