Ode to Billie Joe - Bobbie Gentry (芭比·珍翠)[00:00:00]

Written by：Bobbie Gentry[00:00:02]

It was the third of june another sleepy dusty delta[00:00:08]

Day[00:00:12]

I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin'[00:00:16]

Hay[00:00:21]

And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to[00:00:24]

The house to eat[00:00:27]

And mama hollered out the back door y'all remember to[00:00:32]

Wipe your feet[00:00:36]

And then she said I got some news this mornin'[00:00:40]

From choctaw ridge[00:00:43]

Today billy joe macallister jumped off the tallahatchie bridge[00:00:48]

And papa said to mama as he passed around the[00:00:57]

Blackeyed peas[00:01:00]

Well billy joe never had a lick of sense pass[00:01:04]

The biscuits please[00:01:08]

There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got[00:01:12]

To plow[00:01:16]

And mama said it was a shame about billy joe anyhow[00:01:20]

Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on[00:01:28]

Choctaw ridge[00:01:31]

And now billy joe macallister's jumped off the tallahatchie bridge[00:01:36]

And brother said he recollected when he and Tom and[00:01:44]

Billie joe[00:01:47]

Put a frog down my back at the carroll County[00:01:52]

Picture show[00:01:55]

And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last sunday[00:01:59]

Night[00:02:04]

I'll have another piece a apple pie you know it[00:02:07]

Don't seem right[00:02:11]

I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on choctaw ridge[00:02:15]

And now ya tell me Billie joe's jumped off the[00:02:23]

Tallahatchie bridge[00:02:26]

And mama said to me child what's happened to your[00:02:31]

Appetite[00:02:34]

I've been cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a[00:02:39]

Single bite[00:02:42]

That nice young preacher brother taylor dropped by today[00:02:47]

Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on sunday oh[00:02:55]

By the way[00:02:58]

He said he saw a girl that looked a lot[00:03:03]

Like you up on choctaw ridge[00:03:05]

And she and Billy joe was throwing somethin' off the[00:03:10]

Tallahatchie bridge[00:03:13]

A year has come and gone since we heard the[00:03:19]

News 'bout billy joe[00:03:21]

And brother married becky thompson they bought a store in[00:03:27]

Tupelo[00:03:30]

There was a virus going 'round papa caught it and[00:03:34]

He died last spring[00:03:37]

And now mama doesn't seem to want to do much[00:03:42]

Of anything[00:03:45]

And me I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers[00:03:50]

Up on choctaw ridge[00:03:52]

And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie[00:03:57]

Bridge[00:04:01]
