Ole Nanny Ann

Nanny Ann lived here way 70 de war
She ulster b'long to my pas pa
She nussed my pa an loved him so
When the was done she wouldn't go,
Butt ived right on like she allus did;
An then by an by she nussed pas kid
O. course she's old and wrinkled an black
An sometimes rheumatic gifts in her back
But Nanny AIMS got the incest face.
An Nanny AIMS houses got big fireplace;
An back in almost hid
Is funny black pot an skillet an lid,
An what she cooks in 'em I'm willn' to bet
Is better'n anything you ever ct.
Sometimes bout dinner time O. day

Nanny Ann, tell me, wish you would,
What's in that pot at smells so good"
An she makes like she's mad an says
Goodness mel

Allus honghy! The good land knows!
Yo mus be boiler clean to yo toes
An she'll get plate an uncover the pot
An dish out some turnip green's steamn hot,
An she'll go to the skillet and lift up the lid
An bring me big hunk O. plain corn bread.
An when she pokes the ashes about
Punkin yam potatoes come tumblin' out
With candy on 'em all sticky and sweet,
An she gives me two or three O. them to eat;
An she says, Nov eat! an don yo' stop
Till yo' gifts full clean up to the top.
Beatenes chile ever did see,
Jes fo' de wurl lax his pa ulster be-
An I eat an eat as long as can
An wisht every boy had Nanny Ann.
