Don’t know nothin’, anyhow!

There they say the folks are worried,

Till their minds they almost lose.

No one stops his horse to ask you,

All a-smilin’, “What’s the news?”

There they don’t have any neighbors,

When they’re sick, as we do now,—

But the old folks in the country

Don’t know nothin’, anyhow!

They say there is so much sorrow,
