 A Song for Every Southern Man. 
 
 Now all you Southern people, just listen to ray song, 
 It's about the Harpers' Ferry affair, it is not very long. 
 To please you all I do my best, I sung it in other towns, 
 And while 1 am in Richmond, I'll tell you about old Brown. 
 
 Chorus. Old Ossawattomio Brown ! old Ossawattomic Brown ! 
 That will never pay, 
 Trying to come away down South, 
 And run the niggers away. 
 
 Old Brown and Cook, and a do;:cn more, to Harpers' Ferry went, 
 They got into the arsinel there, they did not have no right; 
 Old Governor Wise heard of this, he started from Richmond town, 
 He went to Harpers' Ferry, and there he caught eld Brown. 
 Chorus, &c. 
 
 They took him down to Charlestown, and into prison ihrow'd him; 
 They put two chains upon his legs, Oh yes ! it was to hold him, 
 They put two chains upon his legs and two upon his arms, 
 The virdict of the jury was, old Brown he should be hung. 
 Chorus, &c. 
 
 Cook and Coppic were in prison, they thought about escaping, 
 They got upon the wall, but they could not save their bacon ! 
 The guard he saw them up there, at them throw'd his pill 
 OKI Cook tumbled over just like he had been killed. 
 Chorus,, &c. 
 
 Now they all are dead and goue to heaven some do say, 
 The angels standing at the gate to drive them right away; 
 The devil standing down below, he calls them for to come, 
 It's no use now old John Brown, you can't get a chance to run. 
 Chorus, c\:c. 
 
 Now all you Southern people a little advice I give; 
 Patronize the South and the State in which you live; 
 And not unto Northern people your money never pay, 
 They have their agents in the South, to run your slaves away. 
 Chorus, &c. 
 
 Now all you Southern darkies, a word to you I'll say; 
 Always mind your masters, and never run away, 
 And don't mind these Northern agents, they tell to you a lie, 
 They get you at the North, and starve you 'till you die. 
 Chorus, &c.
