As time goes by the tales grow taller about possum in Possum Holler
|
As a young man I'd go a courtin' with my sweetheeart so young and fair
|
Down the mountain to Possum Holler that's where he'd always find me waitin' there
|
Now I tell my mama that I's goin' out walkin' neath the moonlight so bright and fair
|
And I'd tell daddy I was huntin' possum
|
And take off a grinnin' and a slickin' down my hair
|
As time goes by the tales grow taller about possum in Possum Holler
|
Then one evening in Possum Holler my sweetheart's daddy stopped all our fun
|
Yeah we got married in Possum Holler just you and me my daddy and daddy's gun
|
As time goes by the tales grow taller about possum in Possum Holler
|
Now when they see a possum hunter young and handsome and a smellin' fair
|
We just lean back and bust our laughin' cause we know there ain't no possum there
|
