IS YO’ LONESUM, HONEY?
Ez de twilight fall,
An’ de koo-koo call,
An’ yo’ doan’ hyeah ’tall
Dis hyeah coon’s foot fall,
Is yo’ lonesum, Honey?
Ez de moon creep high,
In de starlit sky,
An’ yo’ sot an’ sigh,
Kaze I doan’ cum nigh,
Is yo’ lonesum, Honey?
Ez de night creep on,
Till de sun brings dawn,
Ez yo’ wake an’ yawn
In de cool ob de morn,
Still, yo’ lonesum, honey?
