Paul Laurence Dunbar - Whip-Poor-Will And Katy-Did
Work rating: Low

Slow de night `s a-fallin`,
  An` I hyeah de callin,
    Out erpon de lonesome hill;
  Soun` is moughty dreary,
  Solemn-lak an` skeery,
    Sayin` fu` to "whip po` Will."

  Now hit `s moughty tryin`,
  Fu` to hyeah dis cryin`,
    `Deed hit `s mo` den I kin stan`;
  Sho` wid all our slippin`,
  Dey `s enough of whippin`
    `Dout a bird a`visin` any man.

  In de noons o` summah
  Dey `s anothah hummah
    Sings anothah song instid;
  An` his th`oat `s a-swellin`
  Wid de joy o` tellin`,
    But he says dat "Katy did."

  Now I feels onsuhtain;
  Won`t you raise de cu`tain
    Ovah all de ti`ngs dat `s hid?
  W`y dat feathahed p`isen
  Goes erbout a-visin`
    Whippin` Will w`en Katy did?
