Fat Leg

My momma always tell's me im not like the others That i'm different from my stupid sister and skinny brothers How am I different? I would ask and beg She then said, "Hun, you got a fat leg." I then started to wonder what that means Wait a second I can't get my leg in my jeans I then walked outside and got stuck in some mud I guy then walked by and said, "Your leg is fat bud." I screamed and I yelled, I bellowed and flailed But I still couldn't get my fat leg out My momma found me and said, "Yep, you're stuck, no doubt." She gave me a shovel and told me to dig I asked why and she said it's because I had a leg of a pig So after a couple hours I was finally free This old fat leg don't have the best of me Everywhere I stepped the ground shook I can't even enjoy a dang book So eventually I went to get an X-ray I think I have a problem, I was about to say But he stopped me and took off my hat He looked at me and said, " Bud, your just fat."
