Low
Shadder in de valley
Sunlight on de hill,
Sut`ny wish dat locus`
Knowed how to be still.
Don`t de heat already
Mek a body hum,
`Dout dat insec` sayin`
Hottah days to come?
Fiel` `s a shinin` yaller
Wid de bendin` grain,
Guinea hen a callin`,
Now`s de time fu` rain;
Shet yo` mouf, you rascal,
Wha` `s de use to cry?
You do` see no rain clouds
Up dah in de sky.
Dis hyeah sweat`s been po`in`
Down my face sence dawn;
Ain`t hit time we `s hyeahin`
Dat ah dinnah ho`n?
Go on, Ben an` Jaspah,
Lif yo` feet an` fly,
Hit out fu` de shadder
Fo` I drap an` die.
Hongry, lawd a` mussy,
Hongry as a baih,
Seems lak I hyeah dinnah
Callin` evahwhaih;
Daih `s de ho`n a blowin`!
Let dat cradle swing,
One mo` sweep, den da`kies,
Beat me to de spring!`
