Oh! I hab been from norf to souf,
And darkey gals I've seen; But none did eber seem to me
So sweet as Julia Green! She dances and she skips about,
And cuts de pigeon wing; And, oh ! it seems such melody,
When she begins to sing!

I've sat and watch'd de lubly moon Go sliding down the sky;
And ebery little twinkling star Seem'd Julia's shinin' eye. |
