And may he neber want a friend,
Abroad nor yet at home, And when he die, if such a ting
Should eber come to pass, We'll neber such a noder get;
To cry out—Oh ! Sea Bass !
MY SKIFF IS BY THE SHORE.
I'm gwan, I gwan to see me lubly Dina, Down among de swaps in old Carolina ; Happy den we'll be in lub I say, Courting till de broke ob de day,
Tra, la, la, a, la, a, la, la, a, a, la, a, la, a, la.
Ny skiff is by de shore dere, don't you see ?
And as we paddle on, our song shall be—
My dearest Dina, I lub but de.
Come, O, Dina come de time don't waste,
Come, 0 Dina, come—make haste ;
Hop into de boat and gwan wid me
Unto de Nordren Country.                           
Tra, la, la, fcc. Now, 0 ! now we lib in peace and pleasure. Braking of de boots I money makes, I in Dina found a precious treasure, She can hurry up de cakes.
Tra, la, la, &c
