Jekkel Walls
From Will ("Shorty") Love, janitor in Trinity College and Duke Uni-
versity, about 1920, in the hand of Dr. Brown, as taken down from
"Shorty's" singing.
1 When Jekkel walls fell down.
It's no diiTerence whar I stand.
It's no matter whar I'll be,
Dere's someone always ready
To point de finger of scorn at me.
2 So, to heaven my soul shall onward move
Like lightnin' aroun' de throne.
My soul shall shout like Israel [?],
Thank God, I'll soon end at home.
3 When I get to heaven
Want you to be there too ;
When I cry out 'Amen'
Want you to cry out.
