Bobbie Gentrey - Ode To Billie Joe Lyrics

It was the third of June Another sleepy, dusty I was out chopping cotton And my brother was bailing hay And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat And Mama hollered at the back door "Y'all remember to wipe your feet" Then she said "I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge Today Billy Joe McAllister Jumped off the Talahachee Bridge" Bobbie Gentrey Lyrics Ode To Billie Joe Lyrics
