(G major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 1
Say Darkies, (G major)
have you seen the master
with the mustache on his (D major) face?
Go along (G major) the road sometime this morning
like he's going to leave (D major) the place. (G major)
He's (C major) seen the smoke way (G major) up the river
where the Lincoln gunboats lay.
(D major) He took (G major) his hat and he left very sudden
and I suspect he's run (D major) away. (G major)
Loom (C major) as I run, ha,
the dark (G major) is day, ho, (D major) ho, ho, ho.
It must (G major) be now that the kingdom am I
coming in the year of (D major) Ju bilaw. (G major)
He's six foot one way,
two feet t 'other
and he weighs three hundred (D major) pound.
His coat's (G major) so big
he couldn't pay the tailor,
and it won't go halfway (D major) round. (G major)
He drills (C major) so much
that they call him (G major) the captain,
and he gets so dreadful tan. (D major)
Well, I (G major) spec' he'll try and
fool them Yankees
for to think he's con (D major) traband. (G major)
To Massar (C major) and Ha -Ha,
the (G major) darkies stay home. (D major)
It must (G major) be now that the King to Mam
will come in the year of (D major) Jubalore. (G major)
The darkies get so lonesome
living in the log house on the (D major) lawn,
That they (G major) move their things
to the Mass's parlour -board
to keep them while (D major) he's (G major) gone.
There's (C major) wine and cider in (G major) the kitchen
and the darkies they'll have some. (D major)
But ex (G major) pect it'll all be confiscated
when the Lincoln sol (D major) diers (G major) come.
To (C major) Massarun -ha -ha,
dee (G major) -dah, dee -say -ho (D major) -ho,
It must (G major) be now that the kingdom
am I comin' in the year of (D major) Ju bilaw. (G major)
The overseer made us trouble
and he drove us round a spell, (D major)
So we (G major) locked him up in the
smokehouse cellar
with the key thrown in (D major) the (G major) well.
The whip (C major) is lost, the (G major) handcuffs broke,
but the master'll have his pay. (D major)
He's (G major) old enough, big enough,
he ought to know better than
to go and run (D major) away. (G major)
To Massa (C major) run, ha, ha!
Deep (G major) dark he stay, ho, (D major) ho, ho, ho!
It must (G major) be now that the Kingdom
am I coming in the year of (D major) Ju bilaw.
(G major)
