Glad you like them. I certainly do, it's wonderful to listen to, enchanting to my ears. I love hillbillies, and I am proud to be one, my Granny and Gramps came from southern TN and settled in the Ozarks, though I grew up (or "came up") in St. Louis ...Some of us sibs used to spend summers with them...
How bout "used ta could" like, "I used ta could sang in three octaves."

Yep. I'm a hillbilly, too, and reading this thread I'm reminded of so many wonderful people, places and times. :)
