Lyrics of Love and Laughter

An' de burden's allus heavies'
Whaih hits weight has made a so';
Dey is times w'en tribulation
Seems to git de uppah han'
An' to whip de weary trav'lah
'Twell he ain't got stren'th to stan'-
But des' keep on a-joggin' wid a little bit o' song, 
De mo'n is allus brightah w'en de night's been long.

IN MAY.
OH to have you in May,
To walk with you under the trees, 
Dreaming throughout the day,
Drinking the wine-like breeze,

Oh it were sweet to think 
That May should be ours again,
Hoping it not, I shrink,
Out of the sight of men.
