PLANTATION MELODIES. 33 |

|
Mi98 Nancy she was berry gay,
And sprightly as de 'coon; She kotch a weasel fast asleep,
A ridin on de moon ! And when de day war drawin near,
De stars did go to rest; She sleep awake all night wid fear —
Her mind war decompress'd!
Chorus. Oh, Nancy. &c
I hab a mind to circulate
A wedding dar will be; And if I do, I speculate,
My Nancy I shall see: And when I marry Nancy Tease,
I'll introduce you all; We'll kick up such a merry spree,
And gib a fancy ball!
Chorus. Oh, Nancy, &e. |
