GOGGLE TOM. Tune—" Dandy Jim."
Some niggas cannot come de touch* When dey would win de female heart,
tt'rt Gogsjte Tom was neher such, Dis nigga act de lubber's part;
For his eye lick out a feet or so, When be dance wid de colored lasses O, lie strike wid de heel, he strike wid de toe, And sweat like a. lump ob roasted snow.
When Ire draw de boot upon de shin, It set as tight as de white oak rind ;
When he put on boot he grease de skin, And tutn up de heel a foot behind.
For his eye, &c.
When Goggle Ton*, am passing by,
Den Dinah get behind de door, We see through de crack de shine ob her eye,
Bekase her heart am getting sore.
For his eye, &c.
But Goggle Tom hab got a gal, Dat lib in Souf Carolina 'tate, Her eye am white as the Meeting-house wall, And her skin as black as de churcb-yard gate*
Fur his eye-, &.c. |
