Dolly Day. '
The music, with piano-forte accompaniment, published by F. D. Benteen, Baltimore, Md.
I've told you 'bout de banjo,
De riddle and de bow ; Likewise about de cotton-field,
De shubble and de hoe; I've sung about de bulgine
Dat blew de folks away; And now I'll sing a little song
About my Dolly Day.
Chorus. Oh! Dolly Day looks so gay, I run all round and round, To hear her fairy footsteps play, As she comes o'er de ground.
(Repeat.) |

I like to seo de clover
Dat grows about de lane ;
I like to see de 'bacco plant, I like de sugar cane; |
