Georgia's Best


When in Georgia the ultimate dream
Can be respite from summer's hot steam.
But the best Georgia Belle
Relieves hot steam so well.
It's a large bowl of peaches and cream.

The Family That Lives Between Your Toes

There's a family that lives between your toes.
The origin of them nobody knows.
They go around wearing the funniest clothes.
The family that lives between your toes.

                                                                                

There's a family that lives between your toes.
They always move in right under your nose.
The age of the children is hard to suppose
Of the family that lives between your toes.

There's a family that lives between your toes.
They live on green popcorn and watch fungus shows.
They have a strange relative that comes and goes
From the family that lives between your toes.

There's a family that lives between your toes,
And when you get married, so the story goes,
Your loved one is expected to also propose
To the family that lives between your toes.


There's a family that lives between your toes.
They write silly poetry and funny prose.
You can hear them scream when you run through the hose.
The family that lives between your toes.

There's a family that lives between your toes.
And when you are dead and your body arose,
The life of this family comes to a close.
The family that lived between your toes.


MOW THAT LAWN!

It’s time for you to mow the lawn,
The dogs are getting lost.
You’ve got to go and buy the gas,
No matter what the cost.
I know the price of oil is high,
But, really, understand.
The neighbors think that we have moved
And want to buy the land.
You’ve got to mow the lawn today.
I know. It’s really hot!
But the guy next door thought he saw a deer,
And the greyhound almost got shot.
The station on the corner has
The cheapest gas, by far.
You can fill the can with gasoline
When you fill up the car.
The cats are crouching in the weeds
And they’re jumping out at us.
If you will mow the lawn right now
There will be no more fuss.
The pups are afraid to go out at night,
Afraid to go through the door.
Next thing you know it won’t be grass.
You’ll be mopping up the floor.
Come on, now, please go get it done.
Just get yourself in gear!
What? You have an ear infection,
And you really didn’t hear?
OK. Then you take the baby,
And you can clean up his mess.
When I’m done mowing then I’ll go out
And buy that lovely dress.
What’s that you say? You’re feeling fine?
My pleading now you hear?
Yes, I do believe in miracles.
Now, go mow the lawn, my Dear!
