Waring Cuney, "Hammer Song" (1928)

213
On dis mountain
You can't find,
A hammer wid a ring,
A ring like mine.

Ring, Jesus, Ring.

Say on dis mountain
You can't find,
A hammer wid a ring,
A ring like mine.

Ring, Jesus, Ring.

Mean on dis mountain
You can't find,
A hammer wid a ring,
A ring like mine.

Ring, Jesus, Ring
