Stephen C. Foster composed the song Angelina Baker in 1850. The original lyrics are: Away down on de old plantation, Dah's where I was born, I used to beat de whole creation Hoein' in de corn: Oh! den I work and den I sing So happy all de day. 'Til Angelina Baker came And stole my heart away. chorus Angelina Baker! Angelina Baker's gone, She left me here to weep a tear And beat on de old jaw bone. Angeline The Baker is a Bluegrass tune no older than the 1940s.
