Highbrow Singing Ain't Fer Me

I'd rather hear Miss Dolly Parton.

Highbrow Singing Ain’t Fer Me

 

By Elton Camp 

 

I heerd some guy’s the best singer who’s ever been

So I went t’ the theater and paid a bunch t’ git  in

This ugly man come on the stage dressed t’ kill

The audience clapped so it must’ve gave ‘em a thrill

 

He started to breathe way down deep in his chest

For sure, he wasn’t using his ribs like all of the rest

Then he throwed his head back and belted hit out

But not in a normal voice there weren’t no doubt

 

But it weren’t no song that I ever heered before

And I shore don’t care if I never hear it no more

A whole bunch more he sung and they’d clap

I didn’t and wished he would just shut his yap

 

When he finished they stood and clapped fer more

But I slipped out and made a quick dart fer th’ door

Seemed t’ me he wuz a whole bunch over rated

Next singing I want t’ heer is when Dolly is slated
