This term was used in a novel entitled "Their eyes were watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston as an expressive statement with a meaning similar to "by God." In the novel the phrase was used by African American characters from the South, and the novel deals with themes such as racism and the poverty faced by poor African Americans in the early 20th century. Nowadays the term can be used ironically to mock this kind of language.
