Testo Ace Insurance Man

Two men sittin in straight back chairs Feet propped up on the railing Sitting in front of the country store Discussing how the crops were failing About that time a car drove by With an Ace Insurance bumper sticker Well that must be the man been courtin' AbellHe's something of a city slicker (You can tell just from the way he's driving that car) Do you reckon he's goin' up to see Abell You know her daddy went to Macon this day And her momma's been in Arkansas with her ailin' pa Ain't nobody home that way (Ha ha, 'cept Abell!) Now I don't mean nothing by what I say But if you won't say it, I can She ain't got no bid'ness alone With that Ace Insurance man (Why there's just no tellin' what might happen) People ought to keep an eye on their kids You remember 'bout Abby McGuinness Why it, Lik'ta killed her ma when she found out about it Course I know it ain't none of my bi'ness But uh...well, if it was me. If it was me... It might be too late and it would be a pity Better call up the sheriff in Calhoun City And have the preacher organize a 'vestigating committee To see what's going on (Yessir. And we'd better hurry!) Tearing down the road in a pickup truck Whit Beg, ey out taking the lead Followed by a tractor and a half lame mule Dust flyin' as they picked up speed Faces beaming goodness and their jaws set hard Good people just doing what's right And off in the distance was Abell's house And there wasn't a soul in sight Aw, I could'a told you! (Oh I just knew it!) Now the gravel was flying as they turned the bend And screeched to a grindin' halt They went thru the fence, into the flower bed And hit pa's first-prize hog in the head And left half a dozen mama's chickens for dead But it wasn't nobody's fault (Oh, look at Harvey's prize hog!) (And all them darlin' little old bandy chickens) (We got more important things to tend to, boy!) (I wonder if they're covered?) Committee bounded on the front porch To meet the enemy face to face But Abell yelled at 'em thru the screen door "Y'all messed up my daddy's place!" But in her hand she waved a policy Saying with a Mona Lisa grin "Well, y'all timed that one just about right 'Cause Ace done struck again!"
