THE GRINNING NIGGER MAN When you make a hoe cake You want to make it quick, Stir it in the basin And stir it with a stick; Bake it in the oven, Bake it in a pan, And then just watch the antics Of that grinning nigger man. 52 Plantation Pieces, Camp Meeting Songs When you eat a hoe cake You want to eat it hot, Take it from the oven And eat it on the spot; Hold it in the middle, Hold it in your han' And then just watch the antics Of that grinning nigger man. I'M THERE Every different nigger Has a... different taste, You can see it in their manner, You can see it in their face ; Some might want a turtle, Some might want a bear, But when you say rabbit I'm there. Possum is too juicy, Chicken is too dry, Watermelon lovely When they take the eye; Some might want a turkey, Some might want a hare, But when you say rabbit I'm there. 53 Negro Poems, Melodies THE DARKY'S PRAYER Oh, Massa of all Massas Where the ribber Jordan flows, Where the darkies all am welcome In their poor and ragged clothes; Dis darky am a pleading, His lips done move in prayer, And help a poor old nigger Till he done get there.
