Angelina Baker

[2] The lyrics have been subjected to the folk process, and some versions have become examples of the "Ugly Girl" or "Dinah" song.

[3] An instrumental version, as collected by John A. Lomax under the title "Angelina the Baker"[4] is a popular fiddle or banjo tune, and differs from the Stephen Foster melody.

"[7] The melody and lyrics are as follows: Angeline the baker lives in our village green, The way I always loved her beats all you ever seen.

Angeline the baker, her age is forty-three, Fed her sugar candy and she still won’t marry me.

She can't do hard work because she is not stout, She bakes her biscuits every day, and pours the coffee out.
