By and by dose coach
Go widout a team,
Engineer for Jarvey,
Rattle on by steam;
Crack goes de boiler,
Shocking ting, you know,
Better pad de hoof wid me,
And jump Jim Crow.
Turn about and wheel about,
And do jis so;
Berry bad when boiler crack,
And smash Jim Crow.
JIM CROW'S PERSONAL HISTORY.
I come from ole Kentucky, a long time ago,
When I first larnt to wheel about, and jump Jim Crow,
I us'd to take him fiddle, eb'ry morn and arternoon,
And charm de ole buzzard, and dance to de racoon
Veel about and turn about,
And do jis so;
Eb'ry time I veel abont,
I jump Jim Crow.
At hoeing of de sugar, or picking cotton, all de same
