plaintive strain seems TO die away upon
the signing waters Of the famed river!
And when they get to the chorus how
they swing around at their work and
bear down on the loud pedal of their
voices and throw the genuine old jubi-
lee vlgo' or camp meeting times into
the song. If,hey are cutting logs for
the saw-mill nigh at hand they are ap,
to swing their axes in full time with
the measure Of the song, and this gives
it all the more interest and peculiar
charm.
One OF the lively jig songs that are
often heard in the lumber and phos-
plate camps along the Suwanee River
runs something like this.
"Jay-brd up de sugar-tree,
Sparrow on de grOun,
Jay-bird shaked de sugar down,

the fashion of the common negro
songs, lively, yet full of pa,hos and
plaintive melody. There is that
in all negro songs that is plaintive,
even their most exaspera,ing foot seak
ing Gig songs"
True, typical negro songs rarely
ever show any particular effort at prep
aration. They seem to just boil right
out of the darkies' heart and soul,
and if by chance they manage to get
a fairly good jingle or rhyme to them,
it is by no special poetical pains
taking on the part of the author, and
in fact, is of but little consequence
to him. Darkies of the type found
along the Suwanee River seem to
steer clear Of poetical effect, even in
their love songs. Take the following,
for instance:
"Good-bye, mer true love,
Goodbye, mer gal;
Farewell, mer han some gal,
Is comm back again;
Sailin down de ribber;
WOrkin' on de train.
Don t keer what do, mer gal.
Is comm back again.
