Plantation Pieces, Camp Meeting Songs
THE BREAK DOWN
My old wagon, chillun, Isn't very sound, It been a good old wagon But it done broke down.
The axle's out of order And the wheels won't go round, It been a good old wagon But it done broke down.
It trundled in the cotton And it trundled into town, It been a good old wagon But it done broke down.
And now I have to sell it To my neighbor, Mr. Brown, It been a good old wagon But it done broke down.
And I hope a better master My poor old wagon's found, For it been a good old wagon Before it done broke down.
