Feudin' And Fightin' - Dorothy Shay, Original Mix

Feuding and fussing and a-fighting

Sometimes it gets to be exciting

Don’t like them ornery neighbors down by the creek

We’ll be plumb out of neighbors next week

Grandma, poor old grandma

Why’d they have to shoot poor grandma

She lies 'neath the clover

Someone caught her bending over

Picking up a daisy

Feuding and fussing and a-fighting

This is a wrong that needs a righting

Let’s get that funeral service over

So then we can start in a-feuding again

Feuding and fighting and a-fussing

That’s all that’s going on with using

We are such neighborly people peaceful and sweet

All except when we happen to meet

Daughter, baby daughter

Poisoned all the neighbors chickens

Daughter hadn’t oughter

Least until she could run like the dickens

They hit her with a shovel

Feuding and fighting and a-fussing

No use a-standing here a-cussing

Let’s give our daughter a pistol now that she’s four

And go feuding and fighting some more
