Work rating: Low

I `s boun` to see my gal to-night--
    Oh, lone de way, my dearie!
  De moon ain`t out, de stars ain`t bright--
    Oh, lone de way, my dearie!
  Dis hoss o` mine is pow`ful slow,
  But when I does git to yo` do`
  Yo` kiss `ll pay me back, an` mo`,
    Dough lone de way, my dearie.

  De night is skeery-lak an` still--
    Oh, lone de way, my dearie!
  `Cept fu` dat mou`nful whippo`will--
    Oh, lone de way, my dearie!
  De way so long wif dis slow pace,
  `T `u`d seem to me lak savin` grace
  Ef you was on a nearer place,
    Fu` lone de way, my dearie.

  I hyeah de hootin` of de owl--
    Oh, lone de way, my dearie!
  I wish dat watch-dog would n`t howl:--
    Oh, lone de way, my dearie!
  An` evaht`ing, bofe right an` lef`,
  Seem p`int`ly lak hit put itse`f
  In shape to skeer me half to def--
    Oh, lone de way, my dearie!

  I whistles so`s I won`t be feared--
    Oh lone de way, my dearie!
  But anyhow I`s kin` o` skeered,
    Fu` lone de way, my dearie.
  De sky been lookin` mighty glum,
  But you kin mek hit lighten some,
  Ef you `ll jes` say you`s glad I come,
    Dough lone de way, my dearie.
