[I am a hunchback, yellow faced—]
I am a hunchback, yellow faced—
A hateful sight to see—
Tis all that other men can do
To pass and let me be.
A hateful sight to see—
Tis all that other men can do
To pass and let me be.
I am a woman—my hair is white—
I was a drunkard's lass;
The gin dances in my head—
I stumble as I pass.
I was a drunkard's lass;
The gin dances in my head—
I stumble as I pass.

I am a man that God made at first,
And teachers tried to harm;
Here, hunchback, take my friendly hand—
Good woman, take my arm.
And teachers tried to harm;
Here, hunchback, take my friendly hand—
Good woman, take my arm.
