Year of Jubilo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Darkies, can you see the master
With the moustache on his face?
The Yankees come and whip his ass,
He gotta leave this place.
The yankees come, ha ha,
The master go, ho ho,
And we shall have a jubilation
In the Year of Jubilo
Oh darkies, can you see Abe Lincoln
With a paper in his hand?
Say he's gonna give us all a mule
And 40 acres of land.
Abe Lincoln come, ha ha,
Jeff Davis go, ho ho.
There'll be a jubilation on the old plantation
In the Year of Jubilo.
