Feudin' And Fightin'

(album: Have A Smile With Me - 1964)

Feuding and fussing and a-fightin,'
Sometimes it gets to be exciting, now
Don't like them ornery neighbors down by the creek
We'll be plumb out of neighbors next week

Grandma, poor ol' grandma
Tell me, why'd they have to shoot poor grandma
She lies in the clover
You see, someone caught her bending over
Picking up a daisy!

Feduing and fussing and a-fighting
There is a wrong that needs a righting
Let's get that funeral service over
So then we can start in a-feuding again

Daughter, baby daughter
Poisened all the neighbors chickens
Daughter hadn't oughter
Least 'till she could run like the dickens
They hit her with a shovel

Feuding and fighting and a-fussing
No use a-standing here a-cussing, now
Let's give our daughter a pistol now that she's four
And go feuding and fighting some more
