Saturday Night and Sunday, Too Saturday night and Sunday, too True-love on my mind But Monday mornin' bright and soon The white man's got me gwine Bluejay pulled a four horse plow Sparrow, why can't you? Because m' legs are little and long And they might get broke in two Redbird sittin' on a sycamore limb Singin' of his soul A big black snake crawled up that tree And swallowed that poor boy whole Wild geese flyin' thru the air Thru the sky so blue They're now a-floatin' where the south-wind blows So why not me and you? My family learned this off an old '78 record by Burl Ives. Also on the album was "Wake Nicodemus" (another good song about a slave) which I found in the database, but not this one.
