Lee, God rest his soul. and they looked at me fer a second, and they says, honey just put yer head back on down. so i said fine and i did that. but aint nobody gotta know bout them royals, kings and queens and what not. carried the team, y'all. so i says im learnin alot, and makin granny proud. and all that. a proper education. yessir.
