I've Wandered By The Hut Side - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
I've Wandered by the Hut Side. 
I've wandered by the hut side, Where Nelly used to dwell; And sat upon the seat we made, My aching heart did dwell. But now she's gone to happier climes, Her troubles tiny are o'er; This darkey's heart is breaking fast, For darling Nelly Moore. 
Chorus. Then good-bye, good-bye. Nelly, dear, We ne'er shall see you more; You're gone to happier, better climes, Your troubles they are o'er. 
Oh, she was everything to me, We loved each other well; And all the darkies in the place, Thought all the world of Nell. I can't help cry to think she's dead-Oh, Nell why have you gone. And left this darkey- by himself To walk about alone?-Chorus. 
I almost think I see you now Away up in the sky; If we be good, old massa says, We'll go there when we die. So I'll be patient, Nelly, love, I'll see you bye-and-bye; And, oh, what happy times we'll have Away up in the sky.-Chorus.
