NEGRO AND COMIC SONGSTER.

LUCY LONG.

Twas away down old Virgiuny,
A nigger used to dwell,
She was a handsome yaller girl,
Dis darkie knew her well.
O such a lubly creature
As you shall plainly see,
Much better than a Wenus,
And bery much like me.
O, take your time Miss Luey,
Lubly Lucy Long,
Roc the cradle, Lucy,
While I sing you anoder song.

Talk about your Taglioni,
And say she jumps so high,
Miss Lucy lept a five-barr'd gate,
Made all de Niggas fly;
And when eber Lucy trabels
She always leave de mark
Ob her footsteps in de grable,
You ean see dem in de dark.— Oh, &c.

Miss Lucy she is handsome,
All ober she is chaste
Just five yards round de shoulders
And six yards rouud de waist;
