Oh, de good ole chariot will take us all home,
I don't want to leave me behind.

"Say, darkeys, hab you seen de massa
Wid de mufstash on his face.
Go 'long de road some time dis mornin'.
Like he gwine to leab de place?

Whar de Linkum gunboats lay;
He took his hat, and lef' berry sudden,
An' I spec he's run away!
Chorus."De massa run! ha-ha!
De darkey stay! ho-ho!
It mus' be now de kingdom comin',
An' de year ob jubilo.
