Ike Series 6th --Barn Dance

Heck, never was much of a one fer romance, Mostly shy ‘round a lady, Never learnt how to proper dance, couldn’t do it if’n ya paid me. Course er’er times I got all likkered up And jumped and kicked ‘till ah coon’t no more, But Bobby Joe surprised me when she puckered up.. Ah got up the nerve to kiss ‘er and fell on the floor. Reckon one day I’ll git me a dancin’ lesson, Get gussied up and ride ole Hoss to the barn dance, But I’ll still be scairt I’m a guessin’ Tho I’ll be wearin’ smellum and ma new overall pants. Thet thar ah remember was what ah was a thinkin when ah was a barely sebenteen Now fifty years later seems in a eye blinkin’ And yep .. Ah done found ma queen. Twas aft ah come out the Navy When ah had a family on my mind, Sure ’nuff found a special lady But don’t y’all never mind…. Thet thar’s a story for nuther time. dec 17-2011 part of Ike and Jane series written by Robert A. Dufresne
