Biscuits and Turkey Tea
Marcus: *singing softly* ...rich folks eatin in their private dining cars... prolly chompin biscuits and drinkin turkey tea...
Percy: Hey, I recognize that tune. Isn't that from "Folsom Prison Blues" by Johnny Cash?
Marcus: Sort of. I'm just sitting here in my private dining car waiting for Jan to allow me my one hour in the exercise yard with the other inmates.
Percy: Marcus, you just ate breakfast and you're waiting for Jan to finish taking pictures of Buddy and Merci for the dog food review next week.
Marcus: Oh, what a relief! My sentence has been commuted.
Percy: Your sentence is way off track. There is no such line as "prolly chompin biscuits and drinkin turkey tea" in the song.
Marcus: There isn't? Are you sure?
Percy: Positive. Here's Johnny Cash himself. Listen and learn.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE JC!!! Yes Him too... but I agree with the Lone Stars; turkey would be a hole lot better than cigars... hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
It would have made for an interesting tune.
ReplyDeleteThe perfect song to sing while you are locked up

I love Johnny Cash :) Nice video.
ReplyDeleteThat was a short sentence, Marcus. Whew!
ReplyDeleteWell, I LOVE Johnny Cash but I did NOT hear 'turkey tea' or anything like what YOU heard, Marcus.
ReplyDeleteI think you were wishful thinkin'...
Maybe you could make up some new lines for the song and sell them. And I hope they finally let eat something fancy in your private dining car.
We do like your private dining car!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge fan of the Man in Black. ♥ Have you heard A Boy Named Sue? It is so funny to me.
ReplyDeletePepiSmartDog: private dining car! WooHo! Marcus is living large. BOL!
