A 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 yo' mother
But Will and Joe and several mo'
I know is yo' half brother.

But mama knew and said, my child
Just do what makes yo' happy
Marry Will or marry Joe
Yo' ain't no kin to pappy.
