Before my grandmother died we watched this show all the time, loved Leroy, his banjo playing is hypnotizing when he gets going, you can't not tap your foot
True story! about 40 years AGO In Jacksonville, FL, a co-worker showed up with a bandage on her forehead. We asked her if her husband had been beaten on her. She said, "No, but I forgot to fasten my seatbelt and Bubba spotted an Armadillo crossing the ditch and went after it." She brought us some of it the next day, barbequed. Delicious!
Only a five-pounder? Need to catch that one, bubba, and fatten him up on some feed corn. Everybody in this neck of the woods knows that you don't shoot possums you intend to eat, you catch them and cage them and then feed them on corn for a couple of weeks to clean them out. You do the same thing with coons, too. Bein' as they are both scavengers, you have to clean them out real good 'for you eat them to keep from gettin' sick an get the best flavor. Yall holler back if I ain't saying the truth. My Daddy was from Jewel Ridge and my Momma was from Bear Waller, both my Grandpappies were coal miners. I know a thing or two about dining on a thin pocket book.
Had friend that specialized in awesome possum pie. Once he had a dead possum hanging by the tail. Except that possum was playing possum, reach up and bit his finger! I’ve driven many a mile. Biggest roadkill I ever saw was a gator in I-95 in Florida.
i drove into the city one sunday morning and came up with a heehaw-ish diddy , muskrat kitty cat possum coon, dinner is not ready yet but it will be soon
Oh, well, at least he took it home for supper. Waste not, want not. We had a dude over my way who was so drunk, he tried to give one mouth to mouth recesatation.😱
A cantiga que lembra aquelas pessoas que vendiam no faroeste antigo, aquela garrafa pequena que tratava tudo, desde a dor de cabeça até a fraqueza do corpo, os vendedores da banha da cobra nos tempos do faroeste
Assim esta o nosso sistema de saúde, cinco doses da poção , e tudo é tratado, a dor da perna, a dor de cabeça, o coração, a dor da perna do cão e do gato, a dores de garganta da galinha, isto salvaria o nosso sistema de saúde, que como ele esta, mais vale ir ao veterinário, ou comprar o frasco da poção deste senhor, que com 5 doses da poção, terá saúde e dormira a noite toda!!
This man is a great musician!! I love his songs! Thank You for posting it.
Great show and was always a treat to see Leroy Troy on.. Yeah to Loretta Lynn.
Before my grandmother died we watched this show all the time, loved Leroy, his banjo playing is hypnotizing when he gets going, you can't not tap your foot
We sang this to my great grandpa after he had a stroke, he loved it. He passed a few days later while listening to I'll Fly Away. He loved music
The Family continues, from past to present, to the future, it never ends....You are one.

This is one of my favorites. Trying to get out church choir to sing it as special music one Sunday as it is an example of how God provides 😅
I decided after over 21 years to look for this song... and it is still iconic
Never heard ghost chickens before. Im still wiping my eyes from laughing so hard.
A true Star from the back woods I can't help but to smile
When I'm feeling down I listen this And it makes me feel better laughing Is healthy for everyone 😅!!
One of my all-time favorites by Leroy!
"Roadkill enthusiasts!" 🤣
Five pounds of possum? Really?? Loved it! Hilarious!!
Love Marty laughing,,! God Bless from northern Ireland UK, ♥️🇬🇧
Can't stop watchin and listening to this
Abigail Cary look for ghost chickens in the sky video
@@RC-Flight I was going to suggest the same.
If Marty Stewart is not in the country hall a fame they are nuts
He was inducted in 2020
Leroy too
So that’s what happened to George Jones......shame on you Leroy!!! Just running my head, I loved ole Possum and Leroy’s music as well.

Armadillo, possum on the half shell.
Armadillos are just tactical attack possums
We need more of this country music back again 🤔🤟❤️💯‼️😜
As I understand from my Alabama cousins, armadillos are wormy. Thanks but no thanks.
The theme song of the Letter Carriers of Kentucky! The Post Office keeps their bumpers clean, just in case...
# 1 on Billboard... no, make that 'number one on the car's floorboard'
Awesome song
Don't nobody do it like ol Leroy does ! = )

I'm takin' notes. Everyone knows that not only is hunger the best sauce, if you're hungry you eat whatever can't get away.
I love this song
It's Marty's show so he can do what he wants 🤪
I love this guy !!!!
Fine job Leroy.
Love this song
Do you know the real reason the chicken crossed the road?
To show the possum it could be done.

Leroy needs him a good possum dog. Saves on gas.
+John Jacob Jingleheimerschmidt or teach the old gray mare to stomp on em' ....she needs a second job...lol
food around the corner!!
Followed by the flip side song, "Help me, Momma, there's a squirrel in my stew...."
Lol! I sure enjoyed this!!
love it!!!!
This is the music played at maple syrup festival all across Quebec
What's the best weapon for hunting possum? '68 to '79 Ford F-150.
The guitar player has some chart topping' hair, I tell you what!
The guitar player is Conway Twitty.
@@netasedlak9454 That's Marty Stuart
@@carolruth8751 I stand corrected! Thanks.
Love, love, love 😂
Marty was about to lose it..lol
When inflation is high and your family is hungry:
How can you not like this silly song! By the way, fixed right, possum’s pretty good!
Reminds of of "I saw the light".
😆🤣Very funny song.
In 2022 this song hits a little too close to home. Granny Clampett's possom stew may not be an option in struggle street.
funny i like the verses
Eat More Possum!
But beware of Ghost Chickens in the Sky!
🤠 ✌️
Nononono.....I feed possums. I have had possums for pets. I am a member of the American Possum Society.....funny song tho....:)
There a thing called the American possum society. We are doomed. Lol
Very good!
I think the time has come now, to go from dim to bright
leroy troy Rocks
Me and my brothers and my Cousin caught a lot of opossums in our time,,,,, wonder if Leroy ever did???
Possum's Love Popcorn
In south Louisiana, it would be more like 5 pounds of nutria. But otherwise, I can understand the sentiment in this song.
Who is the lady sitting with Loretta? Is that his wife Connie?
I had one in the headlights some years back and the goofy thing just kept going in circles, so I had to wait till it was done lOL
Tab for sale on the banjo?
Any banjo tef available?
i drove into the city one sunday morning and came up with a heehaw-ish diddy , muskrat kitty cat possum coon, dinner is not ready yet but it will be soon
Live from the roadkill Grill , you hit it.we grill it.
Nan said U should try Rosella pie
Oh, well, at least he took it home for supper. Waste not, want not. We had a dude over my way who was so drunk, he tried to give one mouth to mouth recesatation.😱
Mighty Fine.
Another Cadillac Cowboys Fan . . : >)
Possums love Popcorn
Son of a gun, he hit Pogo!
Possum too greasy, now 5 pounds of raccoon is another story
Possum .... the other white meat !!!!
They forgot to say "I'm pickin'" and "I'm grinnin'"
That was Hee Haw.
Precious
possum lodge theme?
Isn't there a gospel song with that tune ?
I'm thinking of Woody Guthrie's Hard Travelin' . .
@@paullanyi516 Yes there is.
i know how to get rid of one you plug their hole up with rags doused in gas or kerosine they don't like the smell
True Country! :-D :-D :-D
Time to go from dim to bright. Lol
That line just about killed the band and the audience.
Five pounds of Koala
As my ex-wife used to say... "Eat mo possum!"
Hard end of the car

For anyone curious about Chords for guitar on this is G C A D you'll thank me later haha

Good stuff.lol
A cantiga que lembra aquelas pessoas que vendiam no faroeste antigo, aquela garrafa pequena que tratava tudo, desde a dor de cabeça até a fraqueza do corpo, os vendedores da banha da cobra nos tempos do faroeste
RIP Loretta
A five pound possum is probably a good sized male.
