More Texas Idioms

More Texas Idioms Miracle Man November 9, 2023 Often my neighbor needs a little reproving, “He’s always lying if his lips are moving”. When he gives me news I consider the source, this guy is “windier than a corn fed horse” He doesn’t always like what I have to say and quickly replies ”every dog has his day.” Sometimes what I say induces his growls, But I don’t worry, “a hit dog always howls.” He’s been this way since he was half grown, I once heard it said “he lies like a tombstone”. He said I’m handier “Than hip pockets on a hog,” and last year “His trees we’re bribing his dog”. He’s such a liar “he’d beat you senseless, and tell God you fell off a horse”
