Hillbilly Underwear

Well here's another story
That I'd really like to share
It's about the first invention
Of a thing called underwear

Invented by one of my kinfolks
A man that the bible calls Adam
It caught on pretty quickly too
Cause pert near everybody had'em

I'll bet you didn't know it 
But Adam was a hillbilly too
You don't have to be a mountain man
To be country thru and thru

Now the first pair he ever wore
Was a leaf called Fruit of the gloom
But somebody done up and stole his patent
You know, Fruit of the loom

Now Adams wife Eve was beautiful
In her fig leaf lingerie
Her Fredricks of Eden was top of the line
But expensive needless to say 

Well times has changed since Adam's day
So we moved up to tater sacks
It gave us more of a sophisticated feel
That a fig leaf always lacks

Now I told this story so everybody knows
Don't listen to any other rumors
So the next time you shop for underwear
You'll remember those hillbilly bloomers
