There was an [C] old nigger, [F] they called him Uncle [Dm] Ned, he [F] is dead long [G] ago, _ long [C] ago.
_ _ _ He had [C] no wool on [A] the top [Dm] of his head, [G] in the [F] place where the [C] wool used to [F] grow. _ _ _ _
_ _ He donned a shovel and [D] a _ [A] hoe, _ _ _ [G] _
_ [F] hang up the [G] fiddle and [Am] the bow.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ [F] No _ [C] more hard work [Am] for [F] poor old _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] Ned, he [F] is gone where the [C] good niggers [F] go.

_ _ _ _ His _ [C] fingers were long [Am] like the _ [Dm] canyons [Bb] break, he [F] had [G] no eyes [C] for to see.
_ _ _ He [F]
had [C] no teeth for [F] sweet [Dm] corn cakes, so [F] he had to let [C] the corn cakes be. _
_ He _ _ [C] _ donned a [F] shovel [E] and a hoe, _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ hang up [G] the fiddle and [C] the bow.
