Pranksters

This is old boys and I want to tell you we've got a bunch of little old boys up here that are always pulling pranks and Oh, they don't mean no harm. They just having fun and I know who most of them are you know Fred Spears and Dick Seifert and and uh, oh Larry Monk and and Larry Hightower different ones of them and they've got this club up here and they they pull these pranks And they think of stuff to do and they pull these pranks on people and like I say They don't mean no harm and they ain't doing no harm So I don't pay no attention to them, but they uh, they started blocking the road up here. They there's this junk pal up here about oh I guess three-quarters of a mile below the the house and they started blocking the road up here. Well the first thing they done one one time they put boots on one of my cows They've got I've got this old gentle milk cow up here that you know wouldn't hurt nobody And so they they caught this cow and put some boots on her and she didn't care she just walked around in her boots I finally saw her and I took them off of her But anyway, they just they just having fun and like I say one time they blocked the road up here and They would they would take this junk out the junk pile and block the road and I never could understand You know what they were doing that forward because I just didn't understand why they wanted to block the road Well last Saturday I was going to town to get a milk can you know one of mine had got bent and you can't deliver that milk to the schoolhouse and a Bint can you know they won't it's the health department won't let you do that so I I was going to town and to get another can and I got down there below the house and I run up on Luther seals that he was down there and he had stopped in his truck and I seen that they had blocked the road again so I got out to help him clear the road, you know an old Luther he didn't pay no attention to it and I Happened to catch out of the corner my eye I caught something flashing up there something you know Sun was flakting off or something and it'd come to me what it was it it was a belt buckle and there was somebody up there behind the tree and I kind of Glanced around you know and I've seen there was a whole bunch of people up there a bunch of boys up there And I it come to me then what they was doing they was up blocking that road and then they would sit up there behind that tree And listen to the people when they come by you know And I guess some of would be mad and and it tickled him you know to see how people would act Well, of course, I didn't never it didn't ever make me mad because it don't do no good You know and if you if you get mad at people it just makes them want to do it that much more So being no Luther I nudged so Luther and let him know, you know what was going on And he didn't we didn't pay no mind to him But we got to talking and I was telling him about the ball game that I had seen the other day of what happened and it went into extra innings And he was telling me about what was going on up there at the schoolhouse And we was just aggravating them boys because we know that they couldn't move as long as we were standing there talking And so I guess me and old Luther stayed there about two hours talking and kept him boys up there behind them trees Because they didn't you know, they didn't come out while we was there They didn't want us to see him and and they didn't know that we know they was there So we kept him up there behind them trees for about two hours And I don't know if that's gonna break him from blocking the road or not But I just thought that was real funny and and I wanted to tell you about it
