stephen foster – massa’s in de cold ground lyrics
(verse 1)
round de meadows am a-ringing
de darkeys’ mournful song
while de mockingbird am singing
happy as de day am long
where de ivy am a-creeping
o’er de gr-ssy mound
dere old m-ssa am a-sleeping
sleeping in de cold, cold ground
(chorus)
down in de cornfield
hear dat mournful sound
all de darkeys am a-weeping
m-ssa’s in de cold, cold ground
(verse 2)
when de autumn leaves were falling
when de days were cold
’twas hard to hear old m-ssa calling
’cause he was so weak and old
now de orange tree am blooming
on de sandy sh-r-
now de summer days am coming
m-ssa nebber calls no more
(chorus)
down in de cornfield
hear dat mournful sound
all de darkeys am a-weeping
m-ssa’s in de cold, cold ground
(verse 3)
m-ssa made de darkeys love him
’cause he was so kind
now de sadly weep above him
mourning ’cause he leave dem behind
i cannot work before tomorrow
’cause de tear drops flow
i try to drive away my sorrow
pickin’ on de old banjo
(chorus)
down in de cornfield
hear dat mournful sound
all de darkeys am a-weeping
m-ssa’s in de cold, cold ground
