"cotton" Discards Yankee Doodle
Yankee Doodle, fare you woll Kice and cotton fluut you ; Once they liked yim very well, But mnv ihey'H do without you, Yankee Dood Ie usi'd to treat Old Poinpey s it oeighbor ; He didn't. grab his bread and mcat. Nor eavil at Li is labor. Bul Doodle now has Rot o keen, For-vei-y dirty shilling ; Propose a ji. hower mean. And Yankre Do"dle s wilhng Doodle, too, lias had ihe luok To fi a pew reftgion ; A kinil of holy ïeal toploek At everj body's )igeon Dooillo's morbid conscirnce strains, With Puntanio vignr, To loose ihe only f' iendly cliains That ever bound a uigger. Yet, Doodle knows ' well ns I, Tlmt wluii li 's come and freed 'em, He'd I inillion niggers die, Before he'd kelp to feed 'em Yankee Doorile sent us down A gallan misBÍonary ; His Bame was Captain J hnny Brown, ThePriest of Barper's Ferry. With piket, he tried to magnify 'I b Qospol ereed of Beeeber, TheOlü Virginia lifted high Tuis mi.iaaiy prraober. Yet, glory to his name is eung ; As if with sin uatainte; The bloody wretch by justice hung, By bigotry issaiuted. Yankee Doodle, now good bye, We spurn a thing so rotten, Proud lndepeadence is the cry, Of sugar. rice and eotton. Atlanta, GA.,Febuary 1, 1861.
