Don’t get scared at nothin’, you stay here today,

Liza, help me hold dis mule, or else he’ll get away.

Watch dis mule a-goin’, goodness how he can sail!

Watch his big ears floppin’, see him sling his tail.

Goin’ down to de ’possum, Liza, you keep cool,

I ain’t got time to kiss you now, I’s busy with dis mule.

A Nigger’s Hard to Fool

A Georgia nigger an’ a Georgia mule,

Dese two asses is hard to fool.

Might fool a white man,
