| Song | The Nightmare |
| Artist | Cab Calloway |
| Album | 1930-1931 |
| Slumber, never comes around 'til dawn, | |
| My head starts reeling, | |
| I dream that I'm kneeling, | |
| It seems that I'm kneeling on the ceiling of my room! | |
| Nightmare, sure has got me in the air, | |
| It's no use denying, | |
| And there's no denying, | |
| I dream that I'm dying and going in my tomb. |
