Do you recall that night in May,
Upon the Kansas river?

Through all my bones, but never, never
Will I get o or that scare that night,
Upon the Kansas river.
And that made your bones shiver.
And when at last we reached the shore.
And when we are to work
And to Persallah'd did hither, hither,
Ah then! 'Iwas another thing';
My pocketbook did shiver.
And hugging that man, I wuggle.
And that made your bones shiver.
