He played his fiddle
while we danced
while lunching toward
the completion of the task.
We was-ah putting up post
to put the tainer shed on.
It was found just beneath
the surface bout'ah

base of the tree it's
arare aoccasion for such
as silver is often found in
heavysands near mines
or in streambeds. Taint none

Until he weighed it and said it
was 42 pounds.
My scale aint that far off.
I beleive this is one of
those devilish varmitts
preaacher warned us about.
he told me he'd take it in for the cashing.
I said to that man you must think I am
a fool. Censored due to a Lady being here.
Well he said
"Hugga dug and Ah-Frug will Thank you."

I care I search for the perfect peach shirt
That allows my skin to breathe
So red restrictive and violet vindictive
A black bra is to me
Why is it a put off if my girls toss
You are lost emerald envy looking
Gravity a green game it's such a shame
That my bare breast are not winning
That very day Eve met the snake
Who cares if he was staring
Did he partake of her chocolate cake
Because her nipples were bra free
My bra is like a rope my breast do choke
I feel no hope in bras no worth
Let them fall down to brown ground for
I care and I search.

Some people are physical wrecks
Because the mind is so complex
What God has in mind
We struggle to find
So we all got bodies for sex!
Silky polka dots, paisleys, flowered bras too.
Printed sweetly in the seventies, reds, and blues.
Debbie had the prettiest that was the big news.
Hers was rainbow in ambry, type of gentle hues.
Bras were more important than any of our hairdos.
Why we needed fancy, did some of us confuse.
Those who did not realize free love was not a ruse.
Bras I despise worse than wood ticks in my skin.
Worse than mice turds, even worse than rattle snakes.
I would rather be thrown into a wolf pit than wear one.
Mother smiled at her six-year-old child.
“Not to worry,” she told him. “You are a boy.”

Now when it comes to shopping for bras
There are three kinds to "support" the cause
For all of those well endowed lasses
"Catholic" bras support the masses
When the most mature women come callin'
"Salvation Army" bras lift the fallen
And whether it's needed or just for thrills
"Baptist" bras make, mountains out of mole hills!
As not every girl rejoices at big bras,
so not every boy rejoices at big brass.
