Shucking Corn

 We gotta get this corn put up before the days out

Why in the he'll did they order so much of it?

Just like Mama to order all this corn and her be in the hospital

Lord, we gotta laugh, otherwise all we'd do is cry

Jenny Lynn said she'd go to the hospital and sit with Mama

Daddy, sure can't go

He's been drinkinh all night

The bedroom closet is all tore up

Can't hold her, probably never will again, but her smell is all over her clothes

We gonna have bushels of creamed corn for the funeral

I shouldn't have thought that, but I know it's true

My brothers and sisters need to come to their senses and prepare to say goodbye

She ain't coming back after this heartattack

This here's a good crop

It's only June and we got plenty of time for a second go round

Well, Mama,you didn't waste your money this year

If you's sitting right here, you'd say the soil was just right

I look at my brothers and sisters laughing and working, acting a fool

Reckon your soil was good too, Mama
