What It Was Was Football
It was back last October I believe it was
We was a-goin t hold
A tent service in this college town
And we got thar about dinnertime on Saturday
And different ones
Of us thought we ought to get us a mouthful to eat before
That we set up the tent
And so we got down off of the truck and followed this little bunch of
People through this small little bitty patch of woods
And we come up on a big sign says Get somethin to eat here
And I went up and got me two hot dogs and a big Orange drink
And before I could take ary mouthful of that food this whole raft of
People come up around me
And got me to where I couldn't eat nothin up like
And I dropped my big orange drink I did
Well friends they commenced to move and they wasnt so much
I could do except to move with em
Well we commenced to go through all kinds of doors and gates
And I don't know what all and I looked up over one of em
And it says north gate and we kept on a-goin through there
And pretty soon we come up on a young boy
And he says Ticket please And I says Friend I don't have a ticket
I don't even know where it is that I'm a-goin I did
Well he says Come out as quick as you can
And I says Ill do erIll turn around the first chance I get
Well we kept on a-movin through there and pretty soon everyone
Got where it was that they was agoin because they parted
And I could see pretty good I could
And what I seen was this whole raft a people a-settin on these
Two banks and a-lookin at one another acrosst this purty little
Green cow pasture well they was and somebody had took
And drawed white lines all over it and drove posts in it and
I don't know what all And I looked down there and I seen
Five or six convicts a-runnin up and down and a-blowin whistles
They was
And then I looked down there and I seen these pretty girls
A-wearin these little bitty short dresses and a-dancin around
An so I set down and thought id see what it was that was
A-gonna happen I did
And about the time I got set down good I looked down there
And I seen thirty or forty men come a-runnin out of one end
Of a great big outhouse down there they did
An everybody where I was a-settin got up and hollered
And about that time thirty or forty come a-runnin out of the
Other end of that outhouse and the other bank full
THEY got up and hollered
An I asked this feller that was a-settin beside me I says
Friend what is it that they're a-hollerin for
Well he whopped me on the back and he says
Buddy have a drink
Well I says I believe I will have another big Orange
An I got it and set back down
An when I got back down there again I seen that them men
Had got in two little bitty bunches down there
They voted and elected one man apiece
And them two men come out in the middle of that cow pasture
And shook hands like they hadnt seen one another in a long time
And then a convict come over to where they was a-standin an he
Took out a quarter and they commenced to odd-man right there
They did
Well after a while I seen what it was that they was a-odd-mannin for
It was that both bunches-full of them men wanted this funny-lookin
Little punkin to play with they did and I know friends that they
Couldn't-a eat it cause they kicked it the whole evenin
And it never busted
But anyhow what I was a-tellin was that both bunches-full wanted
That thang and one bunch got it an it made the other bunch
Just as mad as they could be and friends I seen that evenin
The awfullest fight that id ever seen in my life
I did They would run at one another and kick one another
And throw one another down and stomp on one another
And grind their feet in one another and I don't know what all
And just as fast as one would get hurt theyd tote him off
And run anothern on
Well they done that as long as I set there but pretty soon
This boy that had said ticket please he come up to me and
He says friend you're gonna have to leave because it is that
You don't have a ticket and I says well alright an I got up
An left an I don't know friends until this day what it was that they
Was a-doin down there but I have studied about it and I think its
Some kindly of a contest where they see which bunch-full of them
Men can take that punkin an run from one end of that cow pasture
To the othern without either gettin knocked down
Er steppin in somethin
