1. Dar’s a colored individual
By the name of Moses Jackson
Who used to have a splendid reputation
He belonged to all societies
Odd Fellows and the Masons
To the Lime Kiln Club he sent his application
When they read his little note
And the darkies took a vote
They concluded Brother Jackson they would snub
One nigger raised the dickens
Said that Jackson had stole chickens
He was black balled in de Lime Kiln Club<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Refrain
Black balled in de Lime Kiln Club
Black balled in de Lime Kiln Club
When Jackson heard the news
There was a nigger with the blues
For he was black balled in de Lime Kiln Club<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. When de Lime Kiln’s gave a picnic
Moses Jackson he attended
To get revenge on them was his intention
He bought himself a black jack
Some dynamite and pistols
And razors most too numerous to mention
Moses Jackson he looked fierce
And the coons themselves made scarse
These woods I’m gwine to fill with smoke, says he
If you coons don’t all take water
There will be a nigger slaughter
So each nigger there then climbed a tree<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Now the coons all heard that Jackson
Was a bad man to get started
That he had killed a coon in Alabama
Jackson said, I’m on the warpath
And I’m looking for the nigger
Who at de Lime Kiln Club had out his hammer
All the coons stayed up the trees
Not a nigger dared to breathe
Moses Jackson gave the coons an awful rub
There was weeping, there was groaning
And a lot of coons a moaning
Now there’s crape out at the Lime Kiln Club<\/p>\n\n\n\n
