My kin folk in Missipp would always rave about “bald peanuts.” It took us several years to figure out they were saying “boiled.”

That’s a gen-u-wine Southern accent that pronounces it “bald”.

There’s a southern accent, where I come from
The young ‘uns call it country, the Yankees call it dumb
I got my own way of talking, but everything gets done
With a southern accent, where I come from.
