It was the third of June another[00:00:00]

Sleepy dusty Delta day[00:00:03]

I was out choppin' cotton and[00:00:09]

My brother was bailin' hay[00:00:11]

And at dinner time we stopped[00:00:17]

And walked back to the house to eat[00:00:19]

And mama hollered at the backdoor[00:00:25]

Y'all remember to wipe your feet[00:00:28]

And then she said I got the news[00:00:33]

This mornin' from Choctaw Wridge[00:00:36]

Today Billie Joe Macallister's[00:00:42]

Jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge[00:00:44]

Papa said to mama as he passed[00:00:51]

Around the black eyed peas[00:00:54]

Well Billie Joe never had a lick[00:00:59]

Of sense pass the biscuits please[00:01:01]

There's five more acres in the[00:01:07]

Lower forty I got to plow[00:01:10]

And mama said it was a shame[00:01:15]

About Billie Joe anyhow[00:01:18]

Seems like nothing ever comes[00:01:24]

To no good upon Choctaw Wridge[00:01:26]

And now Billie Joe Macallister's[00:01:32]

Jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge[00:01:35]

Brother said he recollected when[00:01:42]

He and Tom and Billie Joe[00:01:44]

Put a frog down my back at the[00:01:49]

Carroll County picture show[00:01:52]

And wasn't I talkin' to him[00:01:58]

After church last Sunday night[00:02:00]

I'll have another piece of[00:02:06]

Apple pie you know it don't seem right[00:02:08]

I saw him at the sawmill[00:02:15]

Yesterday upon Choctaw Wridge[00:02:17]

And now you tell me Billie[00:02:23]

Joe has jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge[00:02:25]

Mama said to me child what's[00:02:33]

Happened to your apetite[00:02:35]

Well I've been cookin' all mornin'[00:02:40]

And you haven't touched a single bite[00:02:43]

That nice young preacher brother[00:02:49]

Tailor dropped by today[00:02:52]

Said he'd be pleased to have[00:02:57]

Dinner on Sunday oh by the way[00:02:59]

He said he saw a girl that looked[00:03:05]

A lot like you upon Choctaw Wridge[00:03:08]

She and Billie Joe was throwin'[00:03:14]

Somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge[00:03:16]

One year has come and gone since[00:03:23]

We heard the news about Billie Joe[00:03:25]

Brother married Becky Thompson and[00:03:31]

They bought a store in Tupelo[00:03:34]

There was virus goin' round papa[00:03:39]

Caught it and he died last spring[00:03:42]

And now mama doesn't seem[00:03:47]

To want to do much of anything[00:03:49]

And me I spent a lot of time pickin'[00:03:56]

Flowers upon Chotaw Wridge[00:03:59]

And dropped 'em into the muddy water[00:04:04]

Off the Tallahatchie Bridge[00:04:07]
