Holy Modal Rounders

Year of Jubilo

Holy Modal Rounders


Darkies, can you see the master 
With the moustache on his face? 
The Yankees come and whip his ass, 
He gotta leave this place. 
The yankees come, ha ha, 
The master go, ho ho, 
And we shall have a jubilation 
In the Year of Jubilo 

Oh darkies, can you see Abe Lincoln 
With a paper in his hand? 
Say he's gonna give us all a mule 
And 40 acres of land. 
Abe Lincoln come, ha ha, 
Jeff Davis go, ho ho. 
There'll be a jubilation on the old plantation 
In the Year of Jubilo.
