Possum Holler - Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
As a young man I'd go a courting
With my sweetheart so young and fair
Down the mountain to Possum Holler
That's where he'd always find me waiting there
Now I tell my mama that I's going out walking
Neath the moonlight so bright and fair
And I'd tell daddy I was hunting possum
And take off a grinning and a slicking down my hair
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
Then one evening in Possum Holler
My sweetheart's daddy stopped all our fun
Yeah we got married in Possum Holler
Just you and me my daddy and daddy's gun
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
Now when they see a possum hunter
Young and handsome and a smelling fair
We just lean back and bust our laughing
Cause we know there ain't no possum there
As time goes by the tales grow taller
About possum in Possum Holler
About possum in Possum Holler
