-4 -4  -4  -3 3  -4   3   2   3
A-way down on de old plan-ta-tion,

Dah's where I was born, 
-3 -4  -4  -3  3   -4    3  2  3
I used to beat de whole cre-a-tion 
-3  -3  -4 -3  3
hoe-in' in de corn: 
-1  -4 -4  -3   3  -4  3  2
Oh! den I work and den I sing

So hap-py all de day.

Till An-ge-li-na Ba-ker came

and stole my heart a-way.

She left me here to weep a tear 
 3   -3  -3 -3 -4  -3   3
and beat on de old jaw bone.
