Oh! Ladies don't you blush
When I come out to play
I only mean to please you all
Then I'm goin' away
I hear my true love weeping
I hear my true love sigh
'Way down in Ca-i-ro
This man is gonna die
Sometimes a man's life is sad
Sometimes his life is gay
When he's not oppressed too hard
He's singing all the day
I hear my true love weeping
I hear my true love sigh
'Way down in Ca-i-ro
This man is gonna die
Now we live on the fat of the land
Now we live on the lean
When we have no cake to bake
We sweep the kitchen clean
I hear my true love weeping
I hear my true love sigh
'Way down in Ca-i-ro
This man is gonna die
Massa bought a brand new coat
And hung it on the wall
This man's gonna take that coat
And wear it to the ball
I hear my true love weeping
I hear my true love sigh
'Way down in Ca-i-ro
This man is gonna die
All the ladies in the land
All the gentlemen too
Are gonna hear the angel band
And see what they can do
I hear my true love weeping
I hear my true love sigh
'Way down in Ca-i-ro
This man is gonna die
Oh! Ladies don't you blush
When I come out to play
I only mean to please you all
Then I'm goin' away
I hear my true love weeping
I hear my true love sigh
'Way down in Ca-i-ro
This man is gonna die
