| AGNES SINGS |
We dug the bed we planted
seeds
and performed a lot of tiresome
gardenin' deeds.
But Y'all can't tell with
veggies,
They jist might get et by
weeds!
So give us all a signal if our
gardenin' work succeeds!
Oh tie a yeller turnip to the old
oak tree,*
One jist
ain't enough, better make it three!
When Ah sees yeller turnips on the
old oak tree
Ah gits out the pot,
Gits thuh water real hot,
And dance around in
glee**
And we's be eating turnips from
that old oak tree!!

| MASHED AND THRASHED |
*Ok. So it's an ash tree. It's called "poetic license".
**Not a sight for the faint of heart.
