And on that same theme, here's another rhyme from Talley's
"Negro Folk Rhyme", p. 131

ADD lyrics: SHE HUGGED ME AND KISSED ME

I see'd her in de Springtime,
I see'd her in de Fall,
I see'd her in de Cotton patch,
A cameing from de Ball.

She hug me an' she kiss me,
She wrung my han' an' cried.
She said I wus de sweetes' thing
Dat ever lived or died.

She hug me an' she kiss me.
Oh Heaben! De touch o' her han'!
She said I was de puttiest thing
In de shape o' mortal man.

I told her dat I love her,
Dat my love was bed-cord strong;
Den I axed her w'en she'd have me,
An' she jes say "Go long!"
