Redneck Love Poem

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
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 this
He said, "There's trouble still.

You can't marry Will, my Gal,
And please don't tell you' Mother,
But Will and Joe, and several mo'
I know is your half brother."

But Mama knew and said, my Child,
Just do what makes yo' happy,
Marry Will or marry Joe,
You ain't no kin to Pappy.
