Long time boy, I never see you,
Come let me hold your hand
Long time boy, I never see you,
Come let me hold your hand.
See that Jim Crow sit on the treetop,
Pick all the blossom,
Let me hold your hand boy
Let me hold your hand.

[They say that you'll marry me tomorrow
They say that our love will be
...]

Long time boy, I never hear you,
Come let us walk and talk
Long time boy, I never hear you,
Come let us walk and talk
See that Jim Crow sit on the treetop,
Pick all the blossom,
Let us walk and talk, boy
Let us walk and talk

Long time boy, I never hold you,
Come let us wheel and turn
Long time boy, I never hold you,
Come let us wheel and turn
See that Jim Crow sit on the treetop,
Pick all the blossom,
Let us wheel and turn, boy
Let us wheel and turn
