“Yonder comes my beau”

Took my gal to a blacksmith shop
To have her mouth made small
She turned around a time or two
And swallowed shop and all

Possum in a `simmon tree
Racoon on the ground
Racoon says”You son of a gun”
Shake some `simmons down

Some-one stole my old `coon dog
Wish they`d bring him back
He chases big hogs through the fence
And the little ones through the crack

Met a possum in the road
Blind as he could be
Jumped the fence and whipped my dog
And bristled up at me

Once I had an old grey mule
His name was Simon Slick
He`d roll his eyes and back his ears
And how that mule would kick

How that mule would kick
He kicked with his dyin` breath
He shoved his hind feet down his throat
And kicked himself to death
