Possum
By Joshua Waddell
Oh Possum
Oh Possum in the field of cotton
Old yellow dog he gave chase
Destroyed every acre when he caught
The old possum in the field of cotton
Bark here-Bark there
Everywhere a bark or growl
From both the dog and possum
Which is meaner or more of a man
I can’t say
However, it all happened in the field of cotton
