Well I was the youngest of thirteen children
|
We lived in a little country town
|
Never had much to eat
|
The first words I could speak were patch 'em up and hand-me-downs
|
Well my daddy hauled bills for the textile mills to pick up the little money we
|
made
|
Had a three room shack with a john out back
|
We only had paper when daddy got paid
|
Well somehow i grew up a really fat kid
|
Though we never had that much to eat
|
Those rich kids laughed and they beat on me
|
And their dogs chased me up and down the street
|
They bite my ankles and tear my pants
|
Yeah they all had fun with me
|
And as got fatter those dogs got madder
|
Things were bout as bad as they could be
|
Well I always wanted me a puppy
|
Daddy said there wasn't no way
|
There wasn't near enough food to feed our crew
|
There wasn't none to give away
|
One night a drunk in a poker game
|
He won ole Bill Tedder's hog
|
I kinda liked that ole pole shiner so i raised him like a dog
|
|
Those rich kids all had puppies
|
But I never had no dog
|
It was always me and bill bill
|
The old fat boy and his hog
|
|
Well he'd follow me to school most every day
|
And he'd waller outside and wait
|
Yeah sometimes I'd take him fishing with me
|
But he ate up all my bait
|
He wasn't much good at hunting either
|
Cause everything I shot he ate
|
He was so doggone slow that everywhere we go
|
We always got there late
|
But all my troubles they ended one day
|
When ole Bill Bill got full grown
|
They waited for us one day after school
|
And jumped us as we headed home
|
When the dust had settled and the fur stopped flying
|
Ole Bill Bill sorta grinned at me
|
Cause screaming youngins and the howlin dogs, was all there was to see
|
Well I guess they learned a good lesson
|
Cause they never bothered us after that day
|
Those rich kids called us the two Ton terror
|
And stayed out of our way
|
And they all disappeared to fancy schools
|
and the town got kinda dry of dogs
|
It's only me and Bill Bill
|
The ole fat boy and his hog
|
|
Those rich kids all had puppies
|
But I never had no dog
|
It was always me and bill bill
|
The old fat boy and his hog
|
|
That was all many years ago
|
And ole Bill Bill is a long time gone
|
See things are a whole lot different now
|
About the best I've ever known
|
You see Bill Bill got a little lonesome and brought him a lady friend home one
|
day
|
Now I've got 2872 hogs and several more on the way
|
Got a thirteen thousand dollar pick em up truck
|
Making money so doggone fast
|
Yeah married me a fine southern woman
|
She's teaching me a little bit of class
|
Well she just had a little baby boy about as round as he is tall
|
And I think I'll call him Bill Bill
|
If he's got any spunk at all
|
|
Those rich kids all had puppies
|
But I never had no dog
|
It was always me and bill bill
|
The old fat boy and his hog
|
