Ned Is a Notorious Liar

Bean bags are jumping on her head they said
I wondered what was going on, for it was Ned.
He is notoriously for saying things untrue.
He can make Granddaddy’s face turn red and blue

Whose head? I asked. Your head was the reply.
Now I knew it was nothing but a buzzard’s lie.
There is nothing jumping on my skull today.
So saying, I turned and flounced away.
