A Few Negroes By States




From: PASTIME RHYME SECTION

Alabammer Nigger say he love mush.
Tennessee Nigger say: "Good Lawd, hush!"

Fifteen cents in de panel of de fence,
South Ca'lina Nigger hain't got no sense.

Dat Kentucky Nigger jes think he's fine,
'Cause he drink dat Gooseberry wine.

I'se done heared some twenty year ago
Dat de Missippi Nigger hafter sleep on de fl[=o]'.

Lousanner Nigger fall out'n de bed,
An' break his head on a pone o' co'n bread.
