We have them talking fireflies back home in the Piney Woods. They talk as sure as I'm talking to you now. They also laugh, and sing, and make love. And they ride these little horses. On full moons they have cotillions, and fireflies come from as far away as El Paso. They light up the bayou all the way to Lake Pontchartrain. They put on a good rodeo too. And they ride these little horses.
