(Chorus): Slap her down again, pa Slap her down again Make her tell us more, pa Tell us where she's been We don't want our neighbors Talkin' 'bout our kin Slap her down again, pa Slap her down again

Now poor old Bess got so darn mad She ran away one day To meet that travellin' salesman With city-skickin' ways We ran and stood beside them though With shotguns by our sides Me and Deke and pa and ma Who yelled as they came by
Why don't you

Now ma and pa, they planned for Bess To marry Deacon Brown And not that travellin' salesman Who always came around They made poor Bessie go to church Her face was mighty red The deacon took one look at her And this is what he said
Oh
