'Cause I'm goin', yes I'm goin' with a love that's ever growin'
To that coal-black mammy o' mine
Not a cent, not a cent
An' my clothes are only lent
All the same she'll think I'm just fine
How I've dream'd, how I've schem'd
An at time it almost seem'd
That the sun would never, never shine
That's why I'm goin', yes, I'm goin'
Mighty soon I'll be hullo'in
To that coal-black mammy o'mine
