[Intro]
C    Am  C G F G C 
[Verse]
C                              Am
Way down on de old plantation, Dah's where I was born, 
C                 F              G            C
I used to beat de whole creation Hoein' in de corn: 
C                             Am
Oh! den I work and den I sing So happy all de day, 
C             F              G              C
Till Angelina Baker came And stole my heart away.
[Chorus]
 
C                                Am
Angelina Baker! Angelina Baker's gone; 
C                G
She left me here to weep a tear 
    F          G       C
And beat on de old jaw bone.
