Bare Foot Nellie

Red-headed peckerwood, sittin' on a limb
Ma said chicken, but Nellie got him
Wrung his neck and picked him clean
Funniest chicken I ever seen

Hey, barefoot Nellie
Ho, barefoot Nellie
Hey, barefoot Nellie
You're the one for me

Peg-legged hog walk in the lot
To make three tracks and just one dot
And Nellie says, "Who you think I am?"
That hog's missing about one ham

Hey, barefoot Nellie
Ho, barefoot Nellie
Hey, barefoot Nellie
You're the one for me

Nellie went to town one day
Ridin' on a load of hay
Sold a man a trip to Mars
And now she sits behind the bars

Hey, barefoot Nellie
Ho, barefoot Nellie
Hey, barefoot Nellie
You're the one for me

Nellie put on her Sunday dress
Thought that it would look the best
Made out of an old feed sack
"Cow Feed" wrote right on the back

Hey, barefoot Nellie
Ho, barefoot Nellie
Hey, barefoot Nellie
You're the one for me

Nellie's got a pair of shoes
And she can wear them if she'll choose
So why the heck she got the blues?
Who wants to wear size 22?

Hey, barefoot Nellie
Ho, barefoot Nellie
Hey, barefoot Nellie
You're the one for me
