SUSIE LEE DONE FELL IN LOVE,
SHE PLANNED TO MARRY JOE.
SHE WAS SO HAPPY 'BOUT IT ALL,
SHE TOLD HER PAPPY SO.

PAPPY TOLD HER, SUSIE GAL,

I'D JUST AS SOON YO' MA DON'T KNOW,

HE SAID, 'THERE'S TROUBLE STILL.'

YOU CAN'T MARRY WILL, MY GAL,
AND PLEASE DON'T TELL YO' MOTHER.
BUT WILL AND JOE, AND SEVERAL MO'

Wow! That takes me back to my ska days. Ellis Anton and the Lipsticks, if I recall correctly.

(chorus)
*Woe! Misery!
Shame and scandal in the family
Woe! Misery!
Shame and scandal in the family!​

In Jamaica there was a family
With much confusion as you will see
There was a momma and a papa and a boy who was grown
Who wanted to marry have a wife of his own
He found a young girl, who suited him nice
He went to his papa to ask his advice
The papa said: "Son, I have to say no,
That girl is your sister, but your momma don't know"
(chorus)
So the weeks went by and the summer came down
And soon the best cook in the island he found
He went to his papa, to make a day
The papa turned to him and to him he did say
"You can't marry this girl, I have to say no
That girl is your sister, but your momma don't know"
(chorus)
He went to his momma and covered his head
He told his momma what his papa had said
His momma she laughed, she said: "Go man, go
Your daddy ain't your daddy, but your daddy don't know" ​

I guess we really are the same!​

That's Perry County all right!

Question:
If a husband and wife from Perry County get divorced are they still brother and sister?

probably not, but here in Mc Nairy county they are, the custody battles revolve around the coon hounds.

That's funny! One of my favorite singer song writers; Mike Cross has a similar song. He is hillarious too and an amazing fiddler & guitar player. Check him out if you ever get a chance.
