Hog Yeller’s Bog

~ Linda L. Dowd ~

Moonshiner rednecks,
at Hog Yeller's Bog,
With eyes buggin' out,
like yellow-bellied frog.

Tongues hanging down,
and brains fulla booze,
Belly-scratching swamp men,
hillbilly schmooze.

There's belchin' and burpin',
and slobberin' down shirt.
Horseflies buzzin' about,
Pigs rollin' in the dirt.

Cain't win for losin',
so they don't even try.
Just knockin' back moonshine,
~ "Here's mud in yer eye!"

Angel One, this is adorably cute *grins*
You been hanging out with my family??!!?!

I love the graphic, I collect Coca Cola
stuff, the old metal pictures and
advertisements and such *grins* My kitchen, eventually, will look like a soda shoppe,
with all my CC prizes adorning the walls
and cupboards
