COUNTRY LIFE

Clara case( Deen ) 1926 (Tennessee)

Ode


Country life

Happiness is living on a farm
riding horses, and having lot's
of fun, lot's of work too though
you have to keep it going
watching the Garden growth with
lot's of good food plow it up good
so it'll grow smooth.

Now every Saturday night in down
town Tim -buck -two, a great hoe down
just comes through, Lot's of
handsome lads and pretty girls too
did you ever square dance? so much
fun yah-hoot.

Get a pretty dress like all the girls
do check which one is the prettiest
oh yes we do because with all their
frills they are brand new. Beauty
Is the word for these damsels that’s true.
