WESTERN COUNTRY
As recorded by Henry Whitter, 1924.

I went out to the western country and the weather was so dry,
Sun come out and [I] froze to death; Susanna, don't you cry.

I wisht I had some purty little girl to sell my peaches to,
But this old thing I got here tells ever'thing I do.

I wisht I had a nickel; I wisht I had a dime.
I wisht I had some purty little girl that I could call mine.

Someone stole my little black dog; I wish they'd bring him back.
[He'd] Run your old sow over the fence and the little pigs through the crack.
