| That’s the sweetest little dress, Sally where’d you get the pattern?

|
| Yes, I guess we got the earliest garden in the county
|
| Beneath the strawberries are a heap of snappin' greenbeans
|
| (It's been so long since I saw you, How’s your family?

|
| Can’t get it out ‘cause it’s stuck, stuck, stuck
|
| (Dad finally had his operation
|
| You know how he is at puttin' off things)
|

|
| I can do anything if I got the right tool
|
| Mama, can I? |

| Huh, huh?

| The crops been failin', Lord, it sure is dry
|
| You’d think that we’d get a sprinkle by and by
|
| (Family reunion, listen to ‘em talk, listen to 'em talk, talk)
|
| Gonna tear you up, girl, gonna get a switchin'
|
| Better tell your cousin that you’re sorry that you hit her
|
| (Abby McGuinness’s in love with Abel’s oldest boy

|
| I told you my Mama didn’t raise no fool
|
| I can do anything if I got the right tool
|
| (Family reunion, listen to ‘em talk, listen to 'em talk, talk)
|
| Did it again, put her finger in a Coke bottle
|
| Can’t get it out ‘cause it’s stuck, stuck, stuck
|
| (I heard this mornin' they drug the Tallahatchie River
|
| And found poor Billie Joe)
|
| Ah, a little head cold, that’s all ya have
|
| You fix it right up with a jar of Vicks salve
|
| It’s first time ever that the family been together
|
| It’s so nice that we all get along so well

|
| He’s got the money, you’d think that he’d try
|
| To do somethin' for his mama before she died
|
| Now, I don’t mean to criticize your cookin', no I don’t
|
| But I think that you could add a little bit of pepper
|
| (Cordy, I’d love to have your recipe
|
| Is that the cake you served last Sunday?)
|
| I told you my mama didn’t raise no fool
|
| I can do anything if I got the right tool
|
| Mama, make Willie quit bitin' at me!
|
| Mama, ouch! |
| Ouch! |
| Mama, just make Willie quit it!
|
| Why yes, I guess
|
| And don’t you look nice in your Sunday dress?
|
| Doesn’t Sally look tacky in her silly little dress?
|
| You can see that she just doesn’t know no better
|
| (Can you imagine, she let her daughter Rosalie
|
| Go off to Memphis by herself)
|
| Mama, can I? |
| Huh? |
| Mama, can I? |
| Huh, huh?

| Can I? |
| Huh? |
