O BUD!

The nature of this song is such as to prohibit the printing
here of the six collected stanzas that go with the music. The
words are deposited in the Harvard College Library, as well
as at the College of William and Mary. The song was sung
for my benefit by Mr. Page W. Powell, in 1924; he said that
he learned it in Northampton County, Viriginia.

There's corn in th field, there's corn in the shuck,
There's girls in ths world ain't never been touched.
O Bud, Uncle Bud, O Bud, O Bud, O Bud.
