This verse came a few years after the George Washington verse given by Richie at the start of this thread, (thanks to Azizi Powell (who found it in Scarborough)
Oh, when I gets dat new coat dat I hopes to have soon,
I'll walk my gal by the light ob de moon;
As I walks up and down de road wid my Susanna,
De white folks gwine take me to be Santa Anna.

Martin Van Buren was inaugurated in 1837; the Mexican War and Santa Anna was 1846.
