Jackson writes, "Foster quite specifically tailored the song for use on the minstrel stage He composed it as a piece for solo voice with group interjections and refrain his dialect verses have all the wild exaggeration and rough charm of folk tale as well as some of his most vivid imagery Together with "Oh! Susanna", "Camptown Races" is one of the best gems of the minstrel era"
