Just look at my long tail blue,
Oh, how do you like my blue ?
I’ll sing you a song, it’s not very long
It’s about my long tail blue.
Some niggas they have but one coat,
But I you see got two,
I wears a jacket all de week,
And a Sunday my long tail blue.
Just look at my long, &c.
I stopt some time at Warginny springs,
An' at Baltimore city too,
but l guess I made de niggas squat,
When they saw my long tail blue.
Just look at my long, &c.
Jim Crow was courtin’ a brown gal,
And de white folks called her Sue,
But I guess she let de nigga drop,
When she saw my long tail blue,
Just look at my long. Sic.
Now all you chaps dat want a wife
An’ don’t know how to do,
Just look at me, an’ I’ll show you how
To swing your long tail blue.
Just look at my long, &e.
SMART YOUNG BACHELORS

Smart young bachelors!
Here we are a dashing set.

Seeking each a wife to get,
Smart young bachelors!
