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

2. No more driver's lash for me ...

3. No more pint of salt for me ...

4. No more peck of corn for me ...

5. No more hundred lash for me ...


Pint of salt and peck of corn are reference to slave rations. This song probably was composed by free slaves who fought in Union regiments.
