What It Was, Was
It was back October, I believe it was. We was a-goin t hold
a tent in this college town.
And we got thar dinnertime on Saturday And different ones
of us we ought to get us a mouthful to eat before
we set up the tent.
And so, we got down off of the and followed this little bunch of
people through this small bitty patch of woods.
And we come up on a big sign, says Get to eat here!
And I went up and got me two hot dogs and a big drink.
And before I could take ary mouthful of that this whole raft of
people up around me
and got me to where I couldnt eat nothin up
and I dropped my big drink. I did!
Well friends, they commenced to move and they wasnt so
I could do to move with em.
Well, we commenced to go through all of doors and gates
and I dont know what all, and I up over one of em
and it says North Gate, and we on a-goin through there,
and pretty soon we come up on a boy.
And he Ticket, please And I says Friend, I dont have a ticket.
I dont even know it is that Im a-goin. I did!
Well he says Come out as as you can.
And I says Ill do erIll turn around the first I get.
Well, we kept on through there and pretty soon everyone
got where it was they was agoin because they parted
and I see pretty good. I could!
And what I seen was this whole raft a people on these
two banks and a-lookin at one another this purty little
green cow pasture! Well, was! And somebody had took
and drawed white lines all over it and posts in it and
I dont know what all! And I looked down and I seen
five or six convicts up and down and a-blowin whistles!

And then I looked down there and I seen these girls
these little bitty short dresses and a-dancin around,
an so I set down and thought Id see what it was was
happen. I did!
And about the I got set down good, I looked down there
and I seen thirty or forty men a-runnin out of one end
of a great big outhouse there! They did!
An everybody I was a-settin got up and hollered!
And about that time thirty or forty a-runnin out of the
other end of that outhouse and the other full
got up and hollered!
An I this feller that was a-settin beside me, I says
Friend, is it that theyre a-hollerin for?
he whopped me on the back and he says
Buddy, a drink!
Well, I says I believe I will another big Orange.
An I got it and set down.
An when I got back down there again, I seen them men
had got in two little bitty down there.
They hadreal close together--and they voted! did!
They voted and one man apiece.
And them two men come out in the of that cow pasture
and shook hands like they hadnt seen one another in a time.
And then a come over to where they was a-standin an he
took out a quarter and they commenced to right there!
did!
Well, after a while I seen what it was that they was for.
It was that both bunches-full of them men this funny-lookin
little punkin to play with! They did, and I know friends they
couldnt-a eat it cause they kicked it the evenin
and it busted!
But anyhow what I was a-tellin was that both bunches-full
that thang and one bunch got it an it made the other
just as mad as could be and friends I seen that evenin
the fight that Id ever seen in my life!
I did! would run at one another and kick one another
and throw one another down and on one another
and grind feet in one another and I dont know what all!
And just as fast as one get hurt theyd tote him off
and run on!
Well, they done that as as I set there but pretty soon
this boy that had said Ticket please he up to me and
he Friend, youre gonna have to leave because it is that
you dont a ticket. And I says Well, alright an I got up
an left. An I dont know, friends, until day what it was that they
was a-doin down there, but I have about it, and I think its
some kindly of a where they see which bunch-full of them
men can that punkin an run from one end of that cow pasture
