I was wondering if anybody would recognize that fragment. It tends to pop up into my brain every Weds the 3rd. Then there are Weds morning at 5 and Friday morning at 9... Obscure lyric thread? |

I was out choppin' cotton an' my brother was bailin' hay, And at dinner time we stopped an' walked back to the house to eat, An' Mama hollered out the back door, "Y'all remember to wipe your feet," And then she said, "I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge. Today Billie Joe McAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge." |

A couple of decades ago I made a joke about it to an adult class I was teaching and they all looked at me blankly. They were too young to remember the song. How old did that make me feel? |

04 Jun 20 - 10:20 AM (#4057183) Subject: RE: It's Wednesday the 3rd From: Jeri Mrrzy, sorry for the mistake. The only "George" I could think of was George Floyd, and if you'd been talking to him, well. I was a little concerned, and when it comes down to stuff like that, yeah, I'm a nice, kind person. Thanks for noticing. And now, back to your regularly scheduled whatever. |
