HIST YER UMBERELLA^ Copyright, 1894, by Widmer-Stigler Music Pub. Co. Words by Cy Warman. Music by Joe Newman." 
If you go out a-walkin' wid yer Lulu in de lane, And you want to keep yer Lulu baby dry: When you see de clouds a-comin, and if it begins to rain. Why, hist yer umbrella good and high. 
Chorus. Hist yer umbrella, hist yer umbrella, hist yer umbrella good and high; If you don't want to be melted, hon', when it begins to rain, Don't forget to hist yer umbrella.-(Dance.) 
Dis world's a pow'ful wicked place for good folks to be in, And I guess dat we'll be washed away bime-by: Dar's a hurricane a-comin', and it's gwine be rainin' sin, So hist yer umbrella good and high.- Chorus. 
When dese ole bones am weary, and I lay dis burden down In de sun-kissed over yonder, by and by: I'm gwine to have a halo, and put on a golden crown, And hist my umbrella in de sky.- Chorus.
