I've Been 'Buked

I’ve been ’buked an’ I’ve been scorned,

I’ve been ’buked an’ I’ve been scorned, children;

I’ve been ’buked an’ I’ve been scorned,

I’ve been talked about sho’s you’ born.

Dere is trouble all over dis worl’,

Dere is trouble all over dis worl’, children;

Dere is trouble all over dis worl’,

Dere is trouble all over dis worl’.

Ain’ gwine lay my ’ligion down,

Ain’ gwine lay my ’ligion down, children;

Ain’ gwine lay my ’ligion down,

Ain’ gwine lay my ’ligion down.
