Old Shady
Oh, yah! yah! darkies laugh with me, For the white folks say Old Shady's free, So don't you see that (the) jubilee Is coming, coming, hail, mighty day!
Den away, den away, I can't wait any longer, Hooray! hooray! I'm going home. Den away, den away, I can't wait any longer, Hooray! hooray! I'm going home.
Oh! massa got scared and so did his lady, Dis child breaks for Old Uncle Aby, Open the gates, I hear Old Shady's, Coming, coming, hail, mighty day.
Good-bye, Massa Jeff; good-bye, Miss'r Stephens, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 'Scuse dis nigger for takin' his leavin'; 'Spect pretty soon you'll hear Old Abram's Coming, coming, hail, mighty day.
Good-bye, hard work with never any pay, I's going up North where the good folks say Dat white wheat bread an' a dollar a day Are coming, coming, hail, mighty day.
Oh! I've got a wife and I got a baby, Livin' up North in lower Canaday; Won't dey laugh when dey see Old Shady's Coming, coming, hail, mighty day.
