Look hyeah, what is dat I smell?

Bring dat basket nighah.
Huh uh, ain` dat lak ol` Mis,
Sen`in` me a feas` lak dis?
Rheumatiz cain`t stop my bliss,

Hot an` still a-heatin`;
Good ol` sweet pertater stew;

Des set down, you blessed chile,
Daddy got to t`ink a while,
Den a story mek you smile
W`en he git thoo eatin`.
