Master Going to Sell Us Tomorrow
Mother, is master going to sell us tomorrow? / Yes, yes, yes! / O, watch and pray.
Going to sell us in Georgia? / Yes, yes, yes! / O, watch and pray.
Farewell; mother, I must leave you / Yes, yes, yes! / O, watch and pray.
Mother don't grieve after me / No, no, no! / O, watch and pray.
Mother, I'll meet you in heaven / Yes, my child! / O, watch and pray.
