Back to 'Lasses Cane
'LASSES CANE. AKA and see "Liza Jane (3)." Old-Time, Breakdown/ Song. USA; Arkansas, Oklahoma. A Major. AEae tuning (fiddle). AABB.
I'm goin' down to Arkansas to make some 'lasses cane,
To make a 'lasses pudding to fatten my Liza Jane
O git along home, Betsy
Oh git along home Betsy,
Oh git along, Betsy, git along,
I'm bound to leave this place.
O - down to Arkansas, where 'lasses cane grows tall,
Liza Jane is starvin' to death, won't eat 'lasses at all.
I went up on the mountain and give my horn a blow,
I thought I heard Lucindy say a yander comes my beau.
Git along home, home Lucindy,
Git along home, my Liza Jane,
Git along home, home Lucindy,
Git along home my Liza Jane.
