It was the third of June

Another sleepy, dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' cotton, and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
And mama hollered out the back door, y'all, remember to wipe your feet
And then she said, I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge
Today, Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge

Love the song. My grandparents live near that bridge and I have been fishing underneath many a times.

Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense; pass the biscuits, please.

My grandfather could have written this line, sounds just like him.

A year has come and gone since we heard the news 'bout Billie Joe
And brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a store in Tupelo
There was a virus goin' 'round, Papa caught it and he died last spring
And now mama doesn't seem to wanna do much of anything
And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge
And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge
Pretty girl; great song.

Maybe he’ll have better luck with his “By the light of the moon on the 6th of June” thread.
