I went to Atlanta,
Never been there befo'
White folks eat de apple,
Nigger wait fo co'

refrain :
Catch dot Suth'n
Grab dot train,
Won't come back no' mo'

I went to Charleston,
Never been dere a-fo'
White folks sleep on feather bed,
Nigger on de flo'

I went to Raleigh,
Never been dere a-fo'
White folks wear de fancy suit,
Nigger over-o'
