I Knows This Feller....
I know this hare ole feller down in
Texas
claims he can go a`fishin ner onta
ever day,
Says he`s near`in
on ta tha golden yares,
but we all knows how those fishin
rascals
on word stories`s likes ta play....
He`s got this sweet lil filly
an her name be Ole Missus Nellie Sue,
Now Miss Nellie can spins those
exasperatin spiels bout the big ones
a`gettin away
jus like her dreaming sidekick
of 40 years can do....
Twixt an tween their many fish
fabrications
her hubby tells of long past dancin
days,
He said she was quite a snazy fixin
with her two steppin,twirlin,an
a`dippin ways.
Now their days fer tha river banks
exhilaratin an sun warming
embracements
has a`diminished down to just a day er
two
but iffen ya`ll get down near that ole
caddo lake
stop in fer a hot cup o coffee
but shhhhhh remember,
them southern folks calls tha black
stuff
nothin but a cup of story stirring
brew.
an tell em tha ole poet yank frum
the Arkansas Riceland`s
sent you, a`causin she dint hav
nutin bettern ta do,
an tha`s what ornery country folks
on summers boring days do.
