Work rating: Low

Who say my hea`t ain`t true to you?
    Dey bettah heish dey mouf.
  I knows I loves you thoo an` thoo
    In watah time er drouf.
  I wush dese people `d stop dey talkin`,
  Don`t mean no mo` dan chicken`s squawkin`:
  I guess I knows which way I`s walkin`,
    I knows de norf f`om souf.

  I does not love Elizy Brown,
    I guess I knows my min`.
  You allus try to tek me down
    Wid evaht`ing you fin`.
  Ef dese hyeah folks will keep on fillin`
  Yo` haid wid nonsense, an` you`s willin`
  I bet some day dey `ll be a killin`
    Somewhaih along de line.

  O` cose I buys de gal ice-cream,
    Whut else I gwine to do?
  I knows jes` how de t`ing `u`d seem
    Ef I `d be sho`t wid you.
  On Sunday, you`s at chu`ch a-shoutin`,
  Den all de week you go `roun` poutin`--
  I`s mighty tiahed o` all dis doubtin`,
    I tell you cause I`s true.
