Black Susie

For once I joined a Liverpool ship, O roll the cotton down! We had ord'r to go to New Orleans, O roll the cotton down! 2. There it was, where I first saw a niggerwench, O roll the cotton down! Her name was Sue and was liked by the crew, O roll the cotton down! 3. And dark-eyed Susie came on board, O roll the cotton down! And she said to the captain: how do you do? O roll the cotton down! 4. And up aloft his chronometer flew, O roll the cotton down! And she winked with her eyes to the chief mate too, O roll the cotton down! 5. I think I heard the captain say: O roll the cotton down! Another pool and then belay! O roll the cotton down!
