The words sympathy and empathy are similar in some ways but are two different words. Sympathy is a feeling in which a person feels bad for the other and pities them. It provides the feeling of sorrow. The act of sympathy only provides comfort for a person and doesn't involve any similarly shared feelings. Empathy is when you are able to connect with someone and understand truly how they feel. The act also helps two people share their feelings and misfortunes with each other. Empathy gives the ability for someone to put their shoes in the other's. So, the words sympathy and empathy are two different pillars and each have a different definition and standing.

We need to make sure we know what each of these words mean before we can decide which answer is best.

Satire is the use of humor, comedy, or exaggeration to criticize people's vices.

Irony is expressing your meaning by using language that is the opposite of what you mean, usually for humorous effect.

Dialect is a particular form of language that is specific to a region or group.

Hyperbole is extreme exaggeration.

With these definitions in mind, we can knock hyperbole off immediately as there is nothing exaggerated about the words we're looking at. Satire doesn't quite fit either because it's not obvious or apparent what is being satirized here. Irony also isn't a good choice because what is ironic isn't immediately obvious. Dialect is your best choice because the last part--"a-comin"--implies someone has dropped the g at the end of coming and makes it sound like a dialect.
