There's q rude mound III yonder
graveyard cold
That, knows no decoration day,
And he that Is laid underneath 1t to
mould
Is only ''nigger' they say.
He died an old vagrant, not a cent
did he own!
And he left not soul to be sad;
They gave him his freedom, and he
wandered alone,
And q dog was all that he had.
They dug him a grave and laid him
away,
This poor old worn out slave;
Not prayer for his rest did any one
say
But his dog lay down on his grave.
He lays there and mourns the whole
day long;
For nobody else does he care.
Neither menace nor threat can drive
