[00:08.750]It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day
[00:17.500]I was out choppin' cotton, and my brother was balin' hay
[00:25.000]And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
[00:33.250]And mama hollered out the back door, "Y'all, remember to wipe your feet!"
[00:41.500]And then she said, "I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge"
[00:49.500]"Today, Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
[00:58.250]And papa said to mama, as he passed around the blackeyed peas,
[01:05.500]"Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense; pass the biscuits, please"
[01:13.500]"There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow"
[01:21.000]And mama said, "It was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow"
[01:28.000]"Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge"
[01:36.000]"And now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
[01:45.000]And brother said he recollected when he, and Tom, and Billie Joe
[01:52.750]Put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture show
[02:00.000]"And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last Sunday night?"
[02:08.250]"I'll have another piece-a apple pie; you know, it don't seem right"
[02:17.000]"I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge"
[02:23.750]"And now ya tell me Billie Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
[02:32.000]And mama said to me, "Child, what's happened to your appetite?"
[02:39.500]"I've been cookin' all morning, and you haven't touched a single bite"
[02:48.000]"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
[02:55.500]"Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday, oh, by the way"
[03:02.750]"He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge"
[03:10.500]"And she and Billy Joe was throwing somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
[03:19.000]A year has come and gone since we heard the news 'bout Billy Joe
[03:26.750]And brother married Becky Thompson; they bought a store in Tupelo
[03:34.000]There was a virus going 'round; papa caught it, and he died last spring
[03:42.000]And now mama doesn't seem to want to do much of anything
[03:50.750]And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge
[03:58.000]And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge
