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

In high cotton

Nobody here but us chickens.

It’s hotter than a fritter!

Like a peach-orchard bull

Stronger’n a garlic milkshake

Don't get your cows runnin.

That possum's on the stump.

… took a long dip in the ugly pond

It's cold enough to hang meat in here.

Like a duck looking for thunder.

I'm feeling as low as a toad in a dry well.

Got off like a fat rat with cheese.

Faster than a knife fight in a phone booth.

Boy, ain't no difference twixt them and you 'cept God's Love.

Jump the broomstick

He’s so tight when he blinks his eyes his toe’s curl up.

Higher the hair, closer to God.

You don't have the sense God gave a gnat.

She could make a preacher cuss!

If you are in trouble and told to go out and cut your own switch…don’t come back with a little one…that ain’t going to work for ya.
