410. Miss Julie Ann Glover

410. Miss Julie Ann Glover

This jingle seems to be merely a variant of the more familiar  'Julie Ann Johnson,' of wliich the Archive of American Folk Song
has records from Kentucky, Georgia, Arkansas, and Louisiana.  With the name 'Grover' it has been reported from Maine (FSONE  224-5) 'ind with the name 'Glover' from Iowa (JAFL liv 167-8).  Our text conies from Georgia, but is reported by a North Carolinian.

'Miss Julie Ann Glover.' Reported by Mrs. C. C. Murphy of Ivanhoe,  Sampson county, as sung on Flint River, Georgia. With the tune.

As I was a-gwine to the mill one day
I met Miss Julie Anne a-gwine dat way.
She 'spressed her wish that she might ride.
An' I sot Miss Julie for to ride by my side.

Oh! set up thar. Miss Julie Ann Glover!
Bend yo' eyes an' I can but lub yer !
Oh! set up thar. Miss Julie Ann Glover!
Bend yo' eyes an' I can but lub yer !
