Thread Name: Origins: Sally Goodin / Gooden
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Sally Gooden
Try these"

(after yours), I looked down the road an' I seen my Sally comin'
An I thought in my soul that I'd kill myslef a runnin"

Love a tater pie an I love an apple puddin
An I love a little gal that they call Sally Goodin
An I dropped the tater pie and I left the apple pudding,
But I went across the mountain to see my Sally Gooodin.

Sally is my doozy and Sally is my daisy,
When Sally says she hates me I think I'm goin crazy;
Little dog'll bark, and the big dog'll bite you,
Little gal'll co'te you and big gal'll fight you.

Rainin an a pourin and the creek's runnin muddy,
An I'm so drunk, Lord, I cand stand studdy,
I;m goin up the mountain an marry little Sally,
Raise corn on the hillside and the devil in the valley.

An I shoulda checked the DT first, but I din't.Checked this twice, and the "typos" are not typos, just dialect........
