| Lyrics: | Upon a February morn
A tiny baby boy was born
Abraham, Abraham
When he grew up
this tiny babe
Folks all called him Honest Abe
Abraham, Abraham
In eighteen
sixty, he became
The sixteenth president
And now he's in the hall of fame
A most
respected gent
That's why we celebrate
This blessed February date
Abraham,
Abraham
[2]
When black folks lived in slavery
Who was it set the darkie
free?
Abraham, Abraham
When trouble came down from the shelf
Who's heart was
bigger than himself?
Abraham, Abraham
The country's going to the dogs
They
shouted loud and long
Then from a cabin made out of logs
The right man come
along
And that is why we celebrate
This blessed February date
Abraham,
Abraham
[3]
The U.S.A.'s united thanks
To one whose name was Nancy
Hanks
Abraham, Abraham
She gave this land the finest son
Who ever went to
Washington
Abraham, Abraham
Someone told him General Grant
Was drinking every
night
He answered, "Go see if you can't
Get all my generals tight"
That's why
we celebrate
This blessed February date
Abraham, Abraham
Thank the Lord for
Abraham
Abraham |
