The Goober GrebUer A soldier sat by the road one ; day, And he was looking very gav, ror on his back he had some meal Vbich he had stolen from an old tar heel, Chorus Bye and bye, bye and bye, 'm going to marry before I die, }ye apd bye, bye and bye, darry a girl with a bright blue eye, The Georgia girls there's none surpasses They are sweeter than sorghum 'lasses. Ie had a canteen by his side Vhicb he was striving hard to hide, rrom the gaze of those who passes ie had a quart of sorgum 'lasses. ie built a fire to bake his bread ^nd when it was done he laugh ed and said, There's nothing in this world surpasses xood corn bread and sorgum 'lasses. As I was passing down the street k. pretty tar heel I chanced to meet ays she "Young man are you a traveller?" No,' my dear, I'm a goober grabbler. tye and bye, O bye and bye 'm going to marry before I die, lye and bye, bye and bye, lurry a girl with a bright blue eye f ever you become a traveller ?all and see this goober grabler. This is a very old song that I xiagine must have been comosed some where near the losq^of the Civil War. But I :< i T _?_ ?? emu 11 auut; wueii i was a cnua nd the music to it is especially retty and catching. It seems that the tar heels and Georgians are some what mixed V in it. I do not exactly tr lember its history, but I think it ? something like this: A soldier rom Georgia was on his way lome from Appomattox. He vas walking through North Carolina and becoming hungry ie had the chance of getting iny some old tar heels meal sack o he proceeded to help himself nd to satisfy his appetite with a inner fit for a King. While; waiting for his bread to cook he egan to sing and the chorus to be song was what he sung folywed by the last two verses. Here's hoping he got his blueyed sweetheart and that he is till living and has blue-eyed 1 auu KUUC9 U1UUUU 111111, So the song ought especially o appeal to North Carolinians nd Georgians. You will noice that tie calls pinders "Goob r's." Well, as you perhaps, al eady know the Yankees call tiem peanuts, the Georgians call hem goobers and the~ Carolines call them pinders. Some oiks, Westerners I guess, call hem ground peas. But we will tick to pinders. Which one is correct? We vill let the editor decide but we vill keep on calling them pindrs. We do not live in North Carolina but that is not North Carolina's tault. We live in k>uth Carolina though which s about the same thing and so ve are Carolinians just the same. Kdna V.
