Porter Wagoner - Barefoot Nellie lyrics

Red headed picker was sittin' on a limb Ma said chicken but Nellie shot him Wrung his neck and picked him clean the funiest chicken I've ever seen Hey (barefoot Nellie) ho (barefoot Nellie) hey (barefoot Nellie) you're the one for me Now Nelie put on her Sunday dress she thought that it would look the best Made out of an old beet sack old beet rope around the back Hey (barefoot Nellie) ho (barefoot Nellie) hey (barefoot Nellie) you're the one for me [ el.banjo - fiddle ] Now Nellie went to town one day a ridin' on a bale o'hay Sold a man a trip to Mars now she sits behind the bars Hey (barefoot Nellie) ho (barefoot Nellie) hey (barefoot Nellie) you're the one for me Now Nellie's got a pair of shoes and she can wear 'em if she choose Why the heck she's got the blues wants to wear a size twenty two Hey (barefoot Nellie) ho (barefoot Nellie) hey (barefoot Nellie) you're the one for me [ fiddle ] Picked a little hog walk in the luck he made three tracks just one duck Nellie said who you think I am that hog's missin' about one hen Hey (barefoot Nellie) ho (barefoot Nellie) hey (barefoot Nellie) you're the one for me Hey (barefoot Nellie) ho (barefoot Nellie) hey (barefoot Nellie) you're the one for me
