Goosie Lucy


Goosie Lucy
by Jim H
(sung to the tune of "Woolly Bully")

Tails a waggin
Tongue hanging out
When she's happy
Makes you wanna shout

Goosie Lucy, Goosie Lucy
Goosie Lucy, Goosie Lucy,
Goosie Lucy

She's just a lover
Such a sweetie pie
She's my baby
She's the apple of my eye

Goosie Lucy, Goosie Lucy
Goosie Lucy, Goosie Lucy,
Goosie Lucy

When we're together
My life is just so fine
Just kissin and lickin
She always will be mine

Goosie Lucy, Goosie Lucy
Goosie Lucy, Goosie Lucy,
Goosie Lucy

Poem for Grandma

Grandma W passed away four years ago today. This is the poem I wrote for and read at her services.
Mrs. B
I Know

We’re not together

So very often

Those of us gathered here

And although we are all missing you

I know that you are near

Your sweet face

Is reflected

In many of those that I see

And your eyes are also reflected

I know, when they look at me

We’re sad but

We’re also laughing

Our family bond is strong

We’re catching up on all the news

For which I know you always longed

Last night

I saw a picture

Of you swinging on the moon

From little girl to 89

I know--it came too soon

And now we must

Come to the part

Where you go away, so very far

You’re with Grandpa and Uncle Bill now

I know that’s where you are

Redneck Love Poem

Courtesy of my pal, Col. George from Alabama. I thought this was worth a post!


Mrs. B


Redneck Love Poem


Susie Lee done fell in love
She planned to marry Joe
She was so happy 'bout it all
She told her Pappy so

Pappy told her, Susie gal
You'll have to find another
I'd just as soon yo' ma don't know
But Joe is yo' half brother

So Susie put aside her Joe
And planned to marry Will
But after telling Pappy this
He said there's trouble still

You can't marry Will my gal
And please don't tell yo' mother
But Will and Joe and several mo'
I know is yo' half brother

But mama knew and said my child
Just do what makes yo' happy
Marry Will or marry Joe
You ain't no kin to Pappy
