In That Little Ivy Cabin In The Lane - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
In that Little Ivy Cabin in the Lane. 
I'm a poor old strolling darkey, My heart is filled with woe; My wife and boy, my only joy, Has left me long ago. As I watch the moon at night, And how it glimmers bright, That thought seems to lay on my brain; On the banjo he would play And pass the time away, In that little ivy cabin in the lane. . . 
Chorus. So now I'll bid you all good-by-Oh! it makes this darkey cry-It seems to give me sorrow and pain; The bird that sung so 6\veet, It ?nakes the old man greet, In that little ivy cabiu in the lane. 
I now will mention a man of fame. Oh! now to you I'll tell; Old Abe Lincoln is his name, I guess you all know well; He set this darkey free-Oh! he filled my heart with glee-I hope I'll see old Abe again; For I'm going to a home. Where the angels all do roam, Far from the ivy cabiu in the lane.-Chorus.
