A Negro Love Song.
Seen my lady home las' night,
Jump back honey, jump back.
Hel' huh han' an' sque'z it tight,
Jump back honey, jump back.
Heahd huh sigh a little sigh,
Seen a light gleam f'um huh eye.
An' a smile go flitin' by--
Jump back honey, jump back.
Heahd de win' blow thoo de pines,
Jump back honey, jump back.
Mockin' bird was singin, fine,
Jump back honey, jump back.
An' my hea't was beatin' so,
When I reached my lady's do',
Dat I couldn't ba' to go--
Jump back, honey, jump back.
Put my ahm aroun' huh wais',
Jump back, honey, jump back.
Raised huh lips an took a tase',
Jump back, honey, jump back.
Love me honey, love me true?
Love me well ez I love you?
An' she ansawhd: "'Cose I do"--
Jump back, honey, jump back. from the humor and dialect section of dunbars 1895 book majors and minors.
