"Down Yonder" Luke Barker says... One Thing A Man Never Forgets

Down Yonder - Luke Barker says...      It's mighty hard t' convince a woman that thars as much exercise in doin' th' family wash as thar is in dancin' all evenin'.
     Thats one thing a man never forgets when his wife sends him t' th' stoe, an' thats his tobacker.



Translation for city slickers (non-hill people):

     It's mighty hard to convice your wife that there is as much exercise in doing the laundry as there is in dancing all evening.
     There is one thing a man never forgets when his wife sends him to the store, and that's his tobacco.
