A bunch of years ago the local Little Theater were putting on a play called
Tobacco Road. They wanted me to play the part of the old father. Even though I warn't all that old they insisted and spent about two hours ever night dressing me up with white hair and whiskers. I got to wear my own clothes, but they had to be the ones I fished in or plowed in. Ever body said I were a natural. But they never called me to play no part in no other plays. And they done a whole lot of 'em too. One thing I never figured out is why they wanted me for
Tobacco Road since I don't smoke or chew.
