COMMUNICATION
People in the North
wonderin` what being
said in the South
Thinkin` it funny
how the King`s English
is twisted in a different mouth
Then one day
a man ridin` a roo
paused on his way through
He said 'G`day,
Repeat that ,
What did ya`al say'
we said,' Ah declar ,ya see the `roo ridin`
redneck from waaaay down south...
couldn`t understan` a word from his mouth Faye
The redneck from way down yonder
sit a spell and scratched his head
Lookie yonder...... a bonza sheila
'bluddy ripper' is what he said Linda
Tried to feed him
Red eye n` grits
He just stared and squints
'Surley,Sheila,from da` south
Ya dun `xpect me
to put THAT in mah mouth'
He turned down Possum Pie
Said he thought if an Aussie
ate it 'he`d surley die' Faye
We made him 'nana puddin
fried taters, cornbread, too
We fried up a mess of okra
He turned two shades of blue Linda
You sho'nuff will remember
everything you done ate
when a southern gal done put
something hot upon yer plate! Eileen
The fiddler started playin'
a right smart snappy tune
Doesie doe and two step
boots stompin' round the room Linda
The Aussie`s knees began to jerk
and pretty soon his feet began
the music`s work
He said 'I'll dance and eat ,Aye
might as well pass me them
thar grits and Possum Pie Faye
But the Possum was good
Like it should
But the grits
Gave him the shits Steve
The Aussie danced as fast as he could
down the well beaten path
to where the outhouse stood Faye
Never fear, what can't be e't
hasn't been invented yet
And if what I eat makes me runny
I'll just visit the outdoor dunny
But if I don't make it on time
It really won't be such a crime
Though my trousers may smell a bit
It'll be good old natural runny poop Anthony
