Which would you have?
Of this white or black dame

So white a dame
Shall my soul bereave
‘Cause I’m black at heart
White dame shall at my world cavil
Black shall smile in my hut near the hill
‘Cause I’m black at heart

Lat me wade through the mud
With my Patten even barefooted
And make a wife the black
But the white come aback


« return.
