Ten little nigger boys went out to dine
One chocked his little self and then there were nine

Nne little nigger boys sat up very late
One overslept himself and then there were eight

Eight little nigger boys travelling in Devon
One said he'd stay there and then there were seven

Seven litlle nigger boys chopping up sticks
One chopped himself in halves and then there were six

Six little nigger boys playing with a hive
A bumblebee stung one and then there five

Five little nigger boys going in for law
One got in Chancery and then there were four

Four little nigger boys going out to sea
A red herring swallowed one and then there were three

Three little nigger boys walking in the zoo
A big bear hugged one and then there were two

Two little nigger boys sitting in the sun
One got frizzled up and then there was one

One little nigger boy left all alone
He went and hanged himself and then there were none

a teacher sang this during class one day. it's like 99% white where i live but there was an actual african kid in class named doug. he didn't say anything. i asked him after and he didn't even know what nigger meant.

everyone kept gossiping about it so the principal investigated. teacher claimed she said "tigger" like from winnie the pooh and it was dropped mostly because doug didn't give a shit.
