De berry fust time I wuz erected Judge, I went to deh cawt,
and Lawd, dis wuz dah fust time I was went into de district cawt and didn’t have
to sit in the gallry no mo’ with my firends on de chain. Yes lahd, they told me
I’se de judge now and I’se serposed to sit on der bench.
Well, I spec dey didn’ no how to talk cuz when I’se was
plopped down on top in der middle o’ duh’ bench they said you aint sposed to git
on it lak dat! Why yo’ feet dangling over
and sitting on der place where de turneys put all dem papers! You serposed to sit yoself behin’ it!
I says, why in der hell you say sit on it when de judge is
serposed to sit behin’ it, dat don’t make no sense! But I sits down behind it anyway. I neber see der judge sit any which way cuz I’se
just waitin most a’ der time wit my hiyed’ dun til’ dey called my name.
And I’d go up ter de judge and say my name all nice and specful’ and we’d all have laugher ‘bout it. De judge dat was dar befo’, he ain’t laughin no mo’, do’.
