[Verse]
C Am
Way down on de old plantation, Dah's where I was born,
C F G C
I used to beat de whole creation Hoein' in de corn:
C Am
Oh! den I work and den I sing So happy all de day,
C F G C
Till Angelina Baker came And stole my heart away.
[Chorus]
C Am
Angelina Baker! Angelina Baker's gone;
C G
She left me here to weep a tear
F G C
And beat on de old jaw bone.
