text:
"The Little Old Log Cabin in the Lane" is a popular song written by Will S. Hays in 1871 for the minstrel trade. Written in dialect, the song tells of an elderly man, presumably a slave or former slave, passing his later years in a broken-down old log cabin. The title is from a refrain: "de little old log cabin in de lane". The song itself was popular, resulting in several answer songs, but the melody was even more widely used, including songs set in the cowboy West: western songs; railroad song
