    Whoo!

    Hey, mister, I don't mean to be telling tales out of school, but there's a fella in there'll pay you $10 if you sing into his can.

    I'm not here to make a record, you dumb cracker.

    They broadcast me on the radio.

    That's Governor Menelaus, "Pass the Biscuits, Pappy O'Daniel".

    And he'd appreciate it if you ate his farina and voted him a second term.

    Finest governor we ever had in Mississippi.

    In any state.

    Lord, yes, every parish or precinct. He was making a bigger point.

    Ain't you gonna press the flesh, Pappy? Do some politickin'?

    I'll press your flesh, you dim-witted son'bitch.

    Don't tell your Pappy how to court the electorate. We ain't one-at-a-timin' here.

    We're mass communicatin'!

    Oh, yes, that's a powerful new force.

  • Pappy O'Daniel

    Shake a leg, Junior.

    Thank God your mammy died givin' birth.

    If she'd seen you she'd have died of shame.
