The "Y~O~I" Bunch

Many years ago
I married Yankee lass,
Never thought about the future
didn’t care about her Yankee past.

Because the only thing on my mind
was this sweet and pretty one,
That attached herself to my side
and gave me so much fun.

The difference began to surface
with some of the food she wanted me to eat,
I thought they smelled kind of funky
she thought it was such a treat.

Then, I had my food
I thought was oh so grand,
But at it she turned up her nose
and said that I can not stand.

An Okie-Yankee mix is what
our kids would have to be,
With a little Choctaw Indian thrown
in to make part three.

They got the best of both
the best we had to give,
So Yankie-Okie-Indian
together we’ll have to live.
