"Miss Lucy Long", also known as "Lucy Long" as well as by other variants, is an American song that was popularized in the blackface minstrel show. After its introduction to the stage by the Virginia Minstrels in 1843, "Miss Lucy Long" was adopted by rival troupes. George Christy's cross-dressed interpretation standardized the portrayal of the title character and made the song a hit in the United States. "Miss Lucy Long" became the standard closing number for the minstrel show, where it was regularly expanded into a comic skit complete with dialogue.

| - Miss Lucy Long, aussi connue sous le nom de Lucy Long et autres variantes, est une chanson américaine qui a été popularisée par le minstrel show blackface. La chanson est très misogyne; le personnage masculin domine Lucy et suit un mode de vie avec une promiscuité sexuelle en dépit de sa relation avec elle. Miss Lucy Long fait la satire des concepts noirs de la beauté et de la séduction, et plus généralement des points de vue sur le mariage en Amérique. (fr)

"Miss Lucy Long" became the standard closing number for the minstrel show, where it was regularly expanded into a comic skit complete with dialogue. Versions were printed in more songsters and performed in more minstrel shows than any other popular song in the antebellum period. In blackface minstrelsy, the name Lucy came to signify any sexually promiscuous woman. (en)
