Lyr/ Add: DON'T WANT NO CORNBREAD

Don't want no col' co'n bread an' molasses; (Whuck)
Don't want no col' black gal fo' my reg'lar; (Whuck)
Gwi' buy my good-gal a hoss an' buggy, (Whuck)
So she kin ride wheneber she get ready.

Also sung by Negroes in 1916 constructing highways in South Carolina (see previous post).
