NEGRO FOLK RHYMES |
||
An' w'en de cotton's all laid by, De rain, it spile de bowls, If you don't keep busy pickin' In de cotton fiel' of yo' souls.
Keep on a-plowin', an' a-hoein'; Keep on scrapin' off de rows; An' w'en de year is over You can pay off all you owes.
But w'en you sees a lazy Nigger Stop workin', shore's you're born, You'se gwineter see him comin' out At de liddle end of de horn. |

TWO TIMES ONE
Two times one is two. Won't you jes keep still till I gits through? Three times three is nine. You 'tend to yo' business, an' I'll tend to mine. |
