[00:00.00](Had Not Been For) My Sally Jo (Album Verison) - Doug Kershaw
[00:11.44]I'm up to my rump in cypress stumps
[00:14.01]Spanish moss and alligators
[00:18.06]Tired of the stink of drying mink
[00:20.06]And wild boars digging up my potatoes
[00:24.62]Had not have been for my Sally Jo
[00:28.90]I'd have left the bayou a long time ago
[00:33.53]First time I went to the cowboy show
[00:35.64]I fell in love with Sally Jo
[00:39.67]I kissed her once and I kissed her twice
[00:42.00]She slapped my face but it hurt so nice
[00:46.64]Had not have been for the cowboy show
[00:50.84]I'd have never met my Sally Jo
[01:05.26]I smiled real sweet at my Sally JO
[01:07.59]I asked her to be my ma cher amie-o
[01:11.55]Sally Jo said maybe so
[01:13.93]If I can take her from the bayou
[01:18.46]Had not have been for the lack of dough
[01:22.74]I'd have been married a long time ago
[01:26.94]I worked for a year and a 16 months
[01:29.53]I fished and I hunt and I saved a bunch
[01:33.56]Take my money and away I go
[01:35.80]Up the river to my Sally Jo
[01:40.33]Now that I got a lot of dough
[01:44.58]I'm gonna marry my Sally Jo
[01:58.89]I stuffed my money in a gunny sack
[02:01.40]Laying by my feet in the bottom of the pirogue
[02:05.12]Water leaking from a leaky crack
[02:07.46]Sank my boat to the bottom of the bayou
[02:11.82]Had not have been for the leaky crack
[02:16.09]I'd have never lost my gunny sack
[02:19.75]Now I'm up to my rump in cypress stumps
[02:22.98]Spanish moss and alligators
[02:26.38]And I'm back to the stink of drying mink
[02:29.30]And wild boars digging up my potatoes
[02:33.41]Had not have been for the hole in my pirogue
[02:37.67]I'd have been married to Sally Jo
[02:41.82]Well I'm up to my rump in cypress stumps
[02:44.49]Spanish moss and alligators
[02:48.52]Back to the stink of drying mink
[02:50.68]And wild boars digging up my potatoes
