Planted corn before the fence was built

If brains was grease, he couldn’t slick the head of a pin.

I wouldn't speak to her if I met her in hell and she was carrying a big lump of ice.

We in the short rows.

He didn't get there on a paved road.

His brain rolls around in his head like a mustard seed in a five gallon bucket.

It's raining harder than a cow pissing on a flat rock.

Stomping grounds

A face like a cobbler’s thumb

Rest your coat.

If I had two wheels, I would be a bicycle.

Well, shut my mouth.

Either fish or cut bait.

Tighter than bark on a tree

If that ain't right then grits ain't groceries.

Go hog wild

About as useful as gooseshit on a pumphandle

I feel fatter than a possum stuck in a fence hole.

He just sits there like a bump on a log.

As full of wind as a corn-eating horse

He’d scare a horse from his oats.
