Look hyeah, folks, you hyeah dat change?
Dat ba'k is sha'per dan de res'.
Dat ere soun' ain't nothin' strange,-
Dat dog's talked his level bes'.
Somep'n' 's treed, I know de soun'.
Dah now, - wha 'd I tell you? see!
Dat ere dog done run him down;
Come hyeah, he'p cut down dis tree.
Ah, Mistah 'Possum, we got you at las'-
Need n't play daid, laying dah on de goun';
Fros' an' de'simmons has made you grow fas',-
Won't he be fine when he's roasted up brown!
