Jim Limber the Adopted Mulatto Son of Jefferson Davis Cannot Afford to Make Demands of Love
Momma Varina feels for Negroes daddy
Jeff says she feels for Negroes more than what
She should but he don’t tell her what she should be
Feeling for Negroes he’s the president
And what’s more daddy Jeff and if he want-
ed to he could instead he talks to me
A lot of the time he talks to me about
Things he don’t talk he says to nobody
About he says it’s something like a Ne-
gro cannot listen like the folks he owes
A duty to and that’s a great relief
I know he’s scared sometimes but he don’t show
It much to nobody else that’s how I know he
Loves me because he don’t mind what he shows me
