Fix your plate.

Talk the legs off a dead mule – or – talk the hind leg off a donkey

Well look what the cat dragged in.

My hind foot!

Barefooted as a yard dog.

Took a heart burnin'

If you had a brain you'd play with it.

Watch him; he'll slip a baby copperhead in your pocket, then ask you for a light.

I’m as anxious as a one-eyed cat watching two rat holes.

Sat there like a bump on a log.

Useful as a broken leg.

Sweatin’ like a $2 whore in church

She’s so ugly her feet wouldn’t go to bed with her!

It's been hotter'n a goat's butt in a pepper patch.

She's got tongue enough for 10 rows of teeth.

Like they do in Alabama

Do it up brown

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

He's steal the bridle off a nightmare.

As tall as a Georgia pine

He wouldn't go to a funeral unless he could be the corpse.
