Do you see the caricatures neath the full moon pines The ghost of General McIntosh , spirits of Creek hunters along the river brush Old Timers whittling song flutes from bottom cane Farrier's shoeing mules , work horses straining at the crack of the whip , ferryboats treading shoals across the foggy Flint The voices of children in one room schoolhouses The rousing , morning bell of little towns , the clap of field wagons A fiddler sawing a piedmont 'Rag' The rustle of picking field peas with Croaker bags
