You need n't bothah 'roun' yo'se'f,

Somebody's boun' to amble in

An' 'vite you to dey co'n meal bin;

An' ef you 's stuffed up to be froat

Wid co'n er middlin', fowl er shoat,

Des' look out an' you 'll see fu' sho

A 'possum faint befo' yo' do'.

De way t'ings happen, huhuh, chile,

Dis worl' 's done puzzled me one w'ile;

I 's mighty skeered I 'll fall in doubt,
