My grandfather talking about someone who is gravely ill: "He's on his last clean shirt".

My two favorites, instead of calling someone/something a sumbitch the term "suck egg dog" is used. You suck egg dog! Second, you grinning like a jackass eating brier. Boy you better wipe that grin off your face, you look like a jackass eating brier.
Honorable mention, wooooo I'm drunk as a bitch.

You never have to remember what you said when you tell the truth.
If it has tits or tires, you're going have problems with it.

They kid is wound up tighter than a banjo string.
Those pants are tighter than Dick’s hatband.
You could screw up a steel ball
You could screw up a wet dream.

FredBear, did your grandparents live in or around Kentwood? My dad's mom used to call us chaps, and I've not heard that anywhere else.
About 30 or so years after my grandmother died, at another funeral, a lady spoke about making some jam or jelly, and she said about her kids "that's what I gave them chaps for Christmas." Between her tone and accent, it was as if I was instantly transported back to the late 60's or early 70's.

My grandparents were born in the late 1800's. Their sayings often reflected the era.
"He'd rather lie than eat" -About someone who you can't trust.
"If _____ told me my house was on fire, I'd never look back" - Another one about a liar.
"Three moves is like a fire" - Your furniture would be trashed after moving several times. I'm assuming it was even worse back then using horse and carriage on rutted dirt roads.

Every time my PawPaw would see someone with big teeth or gums he'd always say, "That girl could eat corn on the cob through a picket fence!" Made me laugh every time

Heard an old timer tell a deckhand once that the kids greatest accomplishment was dodging a coat hanger for 9 months.
I'll start using that term more, now.

Grandpa had some saying about doing things in the correct order: " you need to blow your nose BEFORE you wipe your arse."

“Tougher than a boot full of bob wire “ “ you could tear the horns off a billy goat” “ if someone told her to haul butt, she would have to make two trips” “if ugly was a wheel, she would roll forever” “ harder than 90 cents worth of nickel jaw breakers” - just a few I could think of .
