Plantation Pieces, Camp Meeting Songs
Slavery days, slavery days, They are gone with all their ways, Gone the block and gone the lash, Gone the blow and gone the gash; Gone the pillar and the chain, Gone the stigma and the pain, And our hearts are full of praise For the last of slavery days.
MELON TIME IN GEORGIA
The stars begin to twinkle,
The stars begin to shine, What makes those optics kindle,
What makes those optics shine? And when you see them kindle
And when you see them shine, It's melon time in Georgia
And there's melons on the vine.
The stars begin to twinkle,
The stars begin to shine, With ecstasy they kindle,
With ecstasy they shine; And when you see them kindle
It always is the sign, It's melon time in Georgia
And there's melons on the vine.
