Redneck Love Poem

Susie Lee done fell in love,
she planned to marry Joe.
She was so-o-o happy 'bout it all,
she told her Pappy so.

Pappy told her, "Susie Gal,
you'll have to find another.
I'd just as soon yo' Ma don't know,
but Joe is yo' half brother."

So Susie put aside her Joe,
and planned to marry Will.
But after telling Pappy so,
he said, "there's trouble still!"

"You cannot marry Will, my gal,
and please don't tell yo' mother.
But Will and Joe, and several mo'
I know is yo' half brother."

But Ma knew and said, "my child,
just do what makes yo' happy.
Marry Will or marry Joe;
You ain't no kin to Pappy."
