1. Oh, you’ve heard about dat nigger
“N” how he had all de nigs a quakin’
Until dis Bully happen’d ’round
An’ stopp’d his little fun
It tuk me jes’ a minit
Fo’ ter carve dat nigger’s bacon
An’ ever since dat evenin’
You’se kin bet I stand “A” one
An’ now I’m keepin’ kum’p’ny
Wid a dead swell colored lady
‘N’ yer ker bet yer stack ‘er chips
As how dere’ll be no triflin’ dere
I’m de only pebble on de beach
What’s good ’nuff fo’ ‘ma’ Sadie
An’ on our weddin’ night
Dem coons will come from ev’rywhere<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chorus
Come all you’se niggers come
Bring yo’ razors an’ yo’ guns
De invitation’s gen’ral
So I spec’s dere’ll be a fight
Come all you’se colored swells
Bring ‘long yo’ dusky belles
Dere’ll be lots ‘ob good ole wingin’
On De Bully’s weddin’ night<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Dere’ll be lots ob coon an’ ‘possum dere
An’ all ob de neighbors chickens
An’ lots ob good ‘ole nigger gin
Ter wash dem chickens down
An’ when we’re thro’ we’ll let
De poor white trash hab all de pickin’s
An’ you’ll hear dem banjo’s ringin’ den
Fo’ miles an’ miles aroun’
An’ when dem coons am gwine away
I’ll tax dem all fo’ comin’
Ev’ry nig must leave a present
Or deres gwine ter be a fight
I’ll take ma’ Sadie by de hand
An’ leave town ‘fore de mornin’
Yer bet dey’ll all remember
De New Bully’s weddin’ night<\/p>\n\n\n\n
