137. Many Thousand Gone

1 No more auction block for me,
No more, No more,
No more auction block for me,
Many thousand gone.

2 No more peck o' corn for me,
No more, No more,
No more peck o' corn for me,
Many thousand gone.

3 No more driver's lash for me,
No more, No more,
No more driver's lash for me,
Many thousand gone.

4 No more pint o' salt for me,
No more, No more,
No more pint o' salt for me,
Many thousand gone.

5 No more hundred lash for me,
No more, No more,
No more hundred lash for me,
Many thousand gone.

6 No more mistress' call for me,
No more, No more,
No more mistress' call for me,
Many thousand gone.
