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
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.
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!
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.
Never heard ghost chickens before. Im still wiping my eyes from laughing so hard.
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.

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.

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.
I decided after over 21 years to look for this song... and it is still iconic
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.
If Marty Stewart is not in the country hall a fame they are nuts
He was inducted in 2020
Leroy too
Do you know the real reason the chicken crossed the road?
To show the possum it could be done.
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 😅
A true Star from the back woods I can't help but to smile
One of my all-time favorites by Leroy!
"Roadkill enthusiasts!" 🤣
Five pounds of possum? Really?? Loved it! Hilarious!!

The theme song of the Letter Carriers of Kentucky! The Post Office keeps their bumpers clean, just in case...
Love Marty laughing,,! God Bless from northern Ireland UK, ♥️🇬🇧
# 1 on Billboard... no, make that 'number one on the car's floorboard'
Followed by the flip side song, "Help me, Momma, there's a squirrel in my stew...."
It's Marty's show so he can do what he wants 🤪
In south Louisiana, it would be more like 5 pounds of nutria. But otherwise, I can understand the sentiment in this song.
Don't nobody do it like ol Leroy does ! = )
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
Eat More Possum!
But beware of Ghost Chickens in the Sky!
🤠 ✌️
food around the corner!!
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.
This is the music played at maple syrup festival all across Quebec
I love this song
I love this guy !!!!
Awesome song
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
How can you not like this silly song! By the way, fixed right, possum’s pretty good!
Reminds of of "I saw the light".
Fine job Leroy.
Love this song
I think the time has come now, to go from dim to bright
love it!!!!
Marty was about to lose it..lol
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.
Lol! I sure enjoyed this!!
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
Very good!
Me and my brothers and my Cousin caught a lot of opossums in our time,,,,, wonder if Leroy ever did???
Possum's Love Popcorn
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
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
Love, love, love 😂
😆🤣Very funny song.
leroy troy Rocks
When inflation is high and your family is hungry:
What's the best weapon for hunting possum? '68 to '79 Ford F-150.
Who is the lady sitting with Loretta? Is that his wife Connie?
Live from the roadkill Grill , you hit it.we grill it.
Mighty Fine.
Another Cadillac Cowboys Fan . . : >)
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.😱
Possum .... the other white meat !!!!
True Country! :-D :-D :-D
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
Nan said U should try Rosella pie
Precious
Possums love Popcorn
Time to go from dim to bright. Lol
That line just about killed the band and the audience.
Possum too greasy, now 5 pounds of raccoon is another story
They forgot to say "I'm pickin'" and "I'm grinnin'"
That was Hee Haw.
I put thos spng on ou hunting songs play list😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
Five pounds of Koala

Any banjo tef available?
Tab for sale on the banjo?
RIP Loretta
Yass!
Marty loves when Leroy sings silly songs like this and Ghost Chickens in the Sky.
Good stuff.lol

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
A five pound possum is probably a good sized male.
Howdy !
Leroy Troy grand father clock

Isn't there a gospel song with that tune ?
I'm thinking of Woody Guthrie's Hard Travelin' . .
@@paullanyi516 Yes there is.
