Who Dat Say Chicken In dis Crowd, 1898
There was once a great assemblage of the cullud population, all the cullud swells was there, They had got them-selves together to discuss the situation and rumours in the air. There were speakers there from Georgia and some from Tennessee, who were making feather fly, When a roostah in the bahn-ya'd flew up what folks could see, Then those darkies all did cry. Chorus: Who dat say chicken in dis crowd? Speak de word agin' and speak it loud-- Blame de lan' let white folks rule it, I'se a lookin fu a pullet, Who dat say chicken is dis crowd.
A famous culled preacher told his listnin' congregation, all about de way to ac', Ef dey want to be respected and become a mighty nation to be hones' Fu' a fac'. Dey mus nebber lie, no nebber, an' mus' not be caught a-stealin' any pullets fun de lin', But an aged deacon got up an' his voice it shook wif feelin', As dese words he said to him. Chorus: Who dat say chicken in dis crowd? Speak de word agin' and speak it loud-- What's de use of all dis talkin', Let me hyeah a hen a sqauwkin' Who dat say chicken in dis crowd.

When Malindy Sings.
G'WAY an' quit dat noise, Miss Lucy-- Put dat music book away; What 's de use to keep on tryin'? Ef you practise twell you 're gray,
You cain't sta't no notes a-flyin' Lak de ones dat rants and rings F'om de kitchen to de big woods When Malindy sings.
You ain't got de nachel o'gans Fu' to make de soun' come right, You ain't got de tu'ns an' twistin's Fu' to make it sweet an' light. Tell you one thing now, Miss Lucy, An' I 'm tellin' you fu' true, When hit comes to raal right singin', 'T ain't no easy thing to do.
Easy 'nough fu' folks to hollah, Lookin' at de lines an' dots, When dey ain't no one kin sence it, An' de chune comes in, in spots; But fu' real melojous music, Dat jes' strikes yo' hea't and clings, Jes' you stan' an' listen wif me When Malindy sings.
Ain't you nevah hyeahd Malindy? Blessed soul, tek up de cross! Look hyeah, ain't you jokin', honey? Well, you don't know whut you los'. Y' ought to hyeah dat gal a-wa'blin', Robins, la'ks, an' all dem things, Heish dey moufs an' hides dey faces When Malindy sings.
Fiddlin' man jes' stop his fiddlin', Lay his fiddle on de she'f; Mockin'-bird quit tryin' to whistle, 'Cause he jes' so shamed hisse'f. Folks a-playin' on de banjo Draps dey fingahs on de strings-- Bless yo' soul--fu'gits to move 'em, When Malindy sings.
She jes' spreads huh mouf and hollahs, "Come to Jesus," twell you hyeah Sinnahs' tremblin' steps and voices, Timid-lak a-drawin' neah;
Den she tu'ns to "Rock of Ages," Simply to de cross she clings, An' you fin' yo' teahs a-drappin' When Malindy sings.
Who dat says dat humble praises Wif de Master nevah counts? Heish yo' mouf, I hyeah dat music, Ez hit rises up an' mounts-- Floatin' by de hills an' valleys, Way above dis buryin' sod, Ez hit makes its way in glory To de very gates of God!
Oh, hit 's sweetah dan de music Of an edicated band; An' hit 's dearah dan de battle's Song o' triumph in de lan'. It seems holier dan evenin' When de solemn chu'ch bell rings, Ez I sit an' ca'mly listen While Malindy sings.
Towsah, stop dat ba'kin', hyeah me! Mandy, mek dat chile keep still; Don't you hyeah de echoes callin' F'om de valley to de hill? Let me listen, I can hyeah it, Th'oo de bresh of angel's wings, Sof' an' sweet, "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," Ez Malindy sings.
