From Wikisource

Come right hyar, yo' Angeliny;
   Chile, yo' jes' gib me de blues.
What yo' doin'? tryin' to try me
   Warin' out dem bran new shoes?
Yase yo' is, 'deed yo' is,
   Doan yo' dar talk back to me,
Kase I know yo' is.

Whar' yo' gwine to play dis tennis?
   Who yo' playin' tennis wid ;
Playin' wid dat Irish Dennis,
   Well fo' yo,' chile, dat yo's hid.
Come right squar out Pom dar,
   Out Pom dar hin' dat dar bed;
Now, go comb yo' har.

Angeliny! Angeliny!
   Doan yo' hyar me callin' yo'?
Needn't tink dat yo' slip by me,
   Min', gal, I'se daid on tah yo'.
Come right, squar in t'om dar,
   Yo' kaint play wid dem low white trash,
Now, my gal, see hyar.
 
Whar's yo' music edgecashun?
   Git to dat piannah dar
Play dat lubly strabaganzah
   Dat yo' calls de Maiden's Pra'r.
Lan' a-libin', chile, do yo'
   Want de folks in dis hyar neighbo'hood
Tink yo's Irish too?
