Slave Superstitions

Jump rope twirling

Ponytails whirling

Jumping singing

Voices ringing

Step on a crack, break your mother’s back

 

Black as taboo

Down in the bayou

Worse than voodoo

Hear when they say to you

Step on a crack, break your mother’s back

 

Teardrops no play

Like a sunny, rainy day

Scary as the doomsday

The ghost will not go away

Step on a crack, break your mother’s back
