Lyrics of Love and Laughter SPEAKIN' AT DE COU'T-HOUSE. Dey been speakin' at de cou't-house, An' laws-a-massy me, 'T was de beatness kin' o' doin's Dat evah I did see. Of cose I had to be dah In de middle o' de crowd, An' I hallohed wid de othahs, W'en de speakah riz and bowed. I was kind o' disapp'inted At de smallness of de man, Case I'd allus pictered great folks On a mo' expansive plan; But I t'ought I could respect him An' tek in de wo'ds he said, Fu' dey sho was somp'n knowin' In de bald spot on his haid. 118
