CHO:
Oh, come love, come, de boat lies low,
She lies high and dry on de Ohio,
Come love, come, won't you go 'long wid me,
I'll take you down to Tennessee.
Down by de cane brake,
Close by de mill,
Dere I met a yaller gal,
And her name was Nancy Till;
She know'd dat I loved her,
She know'd it berry long,
I'm going to serenade her,
An' dis shall be de song.
The tune appears in England in Peter Kennedy's Fiddler's Tune-Book (1951) as set as a schottishce, "Nancy Dill" with the alternate title "Cane Break (2) (The)."
