Feudin` and fussin` and a-fightin,`
Sometimes it gets to be excitin,`
Don`t like them ornery neighbors down by the creek,
We`ll be plumb out of neighbors next week.
Grandma, poor ol` grandma,
Why`d they have to shoot poor grandma.
She lies `neath the clover
Someone caught her bending over
Pickin` up a daisy!
Feduin` and fussin` and a-fightin`
This is a wrong that needs a rightin,`
Let`s get that funeral service over
So then we can start in a-feudin` again.
Feudin` and fightin` and a-fussin,`
That`s all that`s goin` on with us`n.
We are such neighborly people peaceful and sweet,
All except when we happen to meet.
Daughter, baby daughter,
Poisened all the neighbors chickens.
Daughter hadn`t oughter
Least `till she could run like the dickens.
They hit her with a shovel!
Feudin` and fightin` and a-fussin`
No use a-standin` here a-cussin,`
Let`s give our daughter a pistol now that she`s four
And go feudin` and fightin` some more.

Tunbridge.

Theme song of Skinny Ennis and his Orchestra.
Got a date with an angel,
Got to meet her at seven,
Got a date witn an angel,
And I`m on my way to Heaven.
She`s so lovely beside me,
And whatever betide me.
Got an angel to guide me.
So I`m on my way to Heaven.
Soon I`ll hear the bells ring out,
And the choir will sing out,
When the pearly gates swing out
She`ll beckon to me.
I`ve been waiting a lifetime,
For this evening at seven,
Got a date with an angel
And I`m on my way to Heaven.
