VERSE 1
Draw nigh young men an' listen please
Let me tell you what happened to me
For seven days our babe was gone
In th woods all alone
VERSE 2
We sent for men, far an' near
But nothin' of th child we heer'd
Until th seventh day rolled on
They found where it had went along
VERSE 3
Someone found some of its clothes
That it had lost, we all supposed
An' then we knew before they said
That our infant babe was dead
VERSE 4
Th buzz had picked at its little eyes
Its little teeth as white as chalk
Its poor ole Mother, fainted an' said,
Is our infant alive or is it dead
