camp meeting took place by the colored race; Way down in Georgia. There were folks large and small, lanky, lean, fat and tall, At this great Georgia camp meeting. When church was out, How the sisters did shout! They were so happy. But the young folks were tired and wished to be inspired, And hired a big brass band. And with that band the doggies began to play Pretty music so gay, hats were then thrown away. Thought them foolish people their necks would break. When they quit their laughing and talking and went to walking, For a big choc'late cake! The sisters raised sand, when they first heard the band; Way down in Georgia. The preacher did glare and the deacons did stare, at the young doggies a-prancing. The band played so sweet that nobody could eat 'Twas so entrancing. So the church folks agreed it was not a sinful deed, And they joined in with the rest.
Party Anthem!!!!!!!
camp meeting took place by the colored race;
Way down in Georgia.
There were folks large and small, lanky, lean, fat and tall,
At this great Georgia camp meeting.
When church was out, How the sisters did shout!
They were so happy.
But the young folks were tired and wished to be inspired,
And hired a big brass band.
And with that band the doggies began to play
Pretty music so gay, hats were then thrown away.
Thought them foolish people their necks would break.
When they quit their laughing and talking and went to walking,
For a big choc'late cake!
The sisters raised sand, when they first heard the band;
Way down in Georgia.
The preacher did glare and the deacons did stare, at the young doggies a-prancing.
The band played so sweet that nobody could eat
'Twas so entrancing.
So the church folks agreed it was not a sinful deed,
And they joined in with the rest.
Not doggies!
