Lyrics of Love and Laughter 

Wid his hoe erpon his shouldah
Den he goes erlong,
'Long to'ds night.
An' he keepin' time a-steppin'
Wid a little song,
'Long to'ds night.
De restin'-time's a-comin', an' de time to
drink an' eat;
A baby's toddlin' to'ds him on hits little dusty
feet,
An' a-goin' to'ds his cabin, an' his suppah's 
moughty sweet,
'Long to'ds night.

Daih his Ca'line min' de kettle,
Rufus min' de chile,
'Long to'ds night;
An' de sweat roll down his forred,
Mixin' wid his smile,
'Long to'ds night.
He toss his piccaninny, an' he hum a little
chune;
