Hello Stranger

msrobzombie — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 11:01:32 CST

Lyrics Shared By: Jennifer

June Carter: Well, hello stranger
Put you loving hand in mine
Yeah, hello stranger (Jerry Hensley: hello stranger)
Put you loving hand in mine
You are a stranger
But you’re a friend of mine

Well, get up rounder (get up rounder)
Let a working girl lay down

Yeah, get up rounder (get up rounder)

Let a working girl lay down
You’re a good old rambler (good old rambler)
But you’re all out and down

And I see you
When your troubles are like mine

Yeah, I’ll see you (oh, I see you)

When your troubles are like mine

Oh, I’ll see you (I see you)

When you haven’t got a dime

And it’s every time (oh, it’s every time)

Riding 6 and a 4 street car

Yeah, it’s every time (it’s every time)

Ride 6 and a 4 street car

I can see my baby (see my baby)
Sleeping through the bars

Well, he bowed his head (he bowed his head)
And he waved both hands at me

And he bowed his head (and he bowed his head)

And he waved both hands at me

“I’m prison-bound (prison-bound)

In order to be free”

So get up rounder (get up rounder)

Let a working girl lay down

Yeah, get up rounder (get up rounder)

And let a working girl lay down

You’re a good old rambler (you’re a good old rambler)
But you’re all out and down

Oh, hello stranger (oh, hello stranger)
Put you loving hand in mine

Yeah, hello stranger (hello stranger)

Put you loving hand in mine
You are a stranger (you are a stranger)
But you’re a friend of mine

I Don’t Believe Them At All

Lyrics Shared By: Jennifer

Everyone said I’d get hurt loving you But I don’t believe them at all
They said that your kind of love wasn’t true
But I don’t believe them at all

When you went away and made me cry
I know you didn’t mean it for goodbye
Though I’m still waiting, they say you are gone
But I don’t believe them at all

Faded and gone are my dreams so they say
But I don’t believe them at all
For mine are the dreams that do not fade away
And I don’t believe them at all

Makes no difference what the people say
I know that you’ll come back to me someday
And I’ll be waiting the day you return
Cause I don’t believe them at all

Here is a selection of June interviews, all of theme are incredibly hilarious and June's vibrant sense of humor and keen wit shine through.

Here's proof that June was singing prison songs before Johnny was.

June does a bit of comedy with Ernest Tubb then sings the Grandpa Jones classic "Raining Here This Morning"

Fiddle Player Gordon Terry sings the song "Johnson's Old Grey Mule" and gets a little bit of help from June Carter half way through, lol. This is one half of my favorite skits. Look for part two.

June Carter and Gordon Terry team up to sing "Old Oaken Bucket" . . . only they have a little trouble.

This is the second part of my favorite June skit ever. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

June Carter and Ray Price engage in some hilarious comedy about dating and then June sings "Eight More Miles To Louisville"

June Carter does a little bit of comedy involving Tony, the horse.

I'm sure most of you didn't know this, but this June site had a sister site dedicated to Carlene. I just found out today, that the site is no longer running due to the lack of activity and participation. Wetpaint isn't a private web hosting service so they can actually delete websites off their server with no activity. Thank you everyone who is an active member on this site and is striving to keep the memory of June alive. We have all worked very hard to maintain and keep this site active and the longer we can do that, the longer we can keep our site. Thanks everyone!

Sorry its been so long since I've written anything, I've been really busy lately! That being said, if anyone wants to volunteer their time to help me with our June Carter Newsletter that would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if you are interested.

The forum doesn't seem like its getting much use, so I'm actually considering getting rid of it. It's a lot of work keeping the forum updated and running and since nobody is taking advantage of it, its a waste of my time. Let me know what you guys think about it. If you guys starting using the forum then I have no problem keeping it.

1/8/09
Since this is a new year, I moved all the news updates from 2008 into the "Archive News" section of the site. I also applied a new blue template to the site to change things up a little.

I noticed that there is a "lack" of activity on the June Carter Forum, so please post something and try to get a conversation started with other members. You all voted and said you wanted a forum, but hardly anyone is using it. If you have any suggestions for the site please don't hesitate to email me or leave comments on this site or on the forum. Hope everyone has a great 2009!

Bo Weasel

Lyrics Shared By: Jennifer

June, Helen, and Anita Carter:
Bo Weasel, Bo Weasel
Bo Weasel, Bo Weasel

June:
On Saturday night where I was born down on the farm
Guitars picking and guitars singing till the break of dawn

About 12 o’clock everything gets hot enough to sizzle Jones
We started clapping and he started singing a cute little country song

June, Helen, Anita:
Bo Weasel, Bo Weasel
Where you been all day
Your mom’s been a looking
Cat’s got to looking
Since you went away

Bo Weasel, Bo Weasel
Why’d you go and stay
You’ll get a licking
As sure as I’m sitting
And on this bale of hay

June:
On Saturday night where I was born down on the farm
Guitars picking and guitars singing till the break of dawn

About 12 o’clock everything gets hot enough to sizzle Jones
We started clapping and he started singing a cute little country song

June, Helen, Anita:
Bo Weasel, Bo Weasel
Where you been all day
Your mom’s been a looking
Cat’s got to looking
Since you went away

Bo Weasel, Bo Weasel
Why’d you go and stay
You’ll get a licking
As sure as I’m sitting
And on this bale of hay
On this bale of hay
On this bale of hay

Blues Stay Away From Me

Lyrics Shared By: Jennifer

Carter Family:
Blues stay away from me
Blues why don’t you let me be
Don’t know why you keep on harming me

Love was never meant for me
True love was never meant for me
It seems somehow we never can agree

Life is full of misery
Dreams are like a memory
Bringing back your love that used to be

Tears so many I can’t see
Tears don’t mean a thing to me
Time goes by and still I can’t be free

Stay a Little Longer

msrobzombie — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:47:37 CDT

Lyrics Shared By: Jennifer

June Carter:
I got a gal named blue-eyed Sally
She lives down in Shinbone Alley
The number’s on the gate and the number’s on the door
And the next house over is the grocery store

June and Helen:
Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
I don’t see why you don’t stay a little longer

June:
I sat in the window singing to my loved one
A slop bucket fell from the window above
A mule and a grasshopper eating ice cream
The mule got sick and they laid him on a beam

June and Helen:
Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
I don’t see why you don’t stay a little longer

June:
Now you can’t go home if you’re going by the mill
For the bridge washed out at the bottom of the hill
The big creek’s up and the big creek’s level
I plow my corn with a double shovel

June and Helen:
Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
I don’t see why you don’t stay a little longer

June:
Well, I grabbed a gal and pat her on the head
If you don’t like biscuit, eat cornbread
The girls up big creek about half grown
They jump on a man like a dog on a bone

June and Helen:
Stay all night, stay a little longer
Dance all night, dance a little longer
Pull off your coat, throw it in the corner
I don’t see why you don’t stay a little longer

Cindy

Lyrics Shared By: Jennifer

June Carter:
I wish I was an apple hanging in a tree
And everytime that Cindy’d pass she’d take a bite of me

Carter Sisters:
Get along home, home, Cindy, get along home
Get along home, home, Cindy, I’m going to leave you now

June:
I wish I had a needle as fine as I can sew
I’d sew Cindy to my side and down the road I’d go

Carter Family:
Get along home, home, Cindy, get along home
Get along home, home, Cindy, I’m going to leave you now

June:
I wish I was a rotten egg away up in the tree
And everytime that you’d pass I’d splatter you with me

Carter Family:
Get along home, home, Cindy, get along home
Get along home, home, Cindy, I’m going to leave you now

Don’t Wait

Lyrics Shared By: Jennifer

Mother Maybelle:
When this old world is burning
All the sinners will be running
To seek a place to hide away and pray

It’ll be too late my brother
In sin don’t go no further
You’d better get ready for that judgement day

Don’t wait (Carter Sisters: don’t wait)
Don’t wait (don’t wait)
All: You can’t stand at the judgement alone
Don’t wait (don’t wait)
Don’t wait (don’t wait)
All: Don’t wait until your soul is lost and gone

Do you ever read your Bible
Or keep it close beside you
It tells us how to live and how to die

When this old world starts reeling
You’ll think then about kneeling
It’ll be too late, your time has come to die

Don’t wait (don’t wait)
Don’t wait (don’t wait)
All: You can’t stand at the judgement alone
Don’t wait (don’t wait)
Don’t wait (don’t wait)
All: Don’t wait until your soul is lost and gone

Poems, Jokes, and Juneisms

msrobzombie — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 11:44:27 CDT

One of the most lovable characteristics about June Carter was her classic wit. Most exemplified in her wacky songs and poems.

Me feller flewed he do'd me dirt

Me never knewed he was a flirt

To those in love I'd now forbid

Let you get do'd like I got did.

June's "World's Shortest Poem About The World's First Fleas":

Adam

Had 'em

Georgie was a little girl who lived in Tennessee

She had a ticklish feeling on her ankle and her knee

Upon investigation she found a chigger and a flea

and they went marching on Georgie.

"Hoorah, Hoorey" said the chigger to the flea

"Hoorah, Hoorey, we'll have a jubilllee.

You'll bite her on the ankle and I'll bite her on the knee

And we'll go marching on Georgie."

A man named Ogden Copfrogger
wanted to change his name.
"It's a bad name he stated
and not one thats fated
to bring me fortune and fame."

So he went to wiseman to change it
but the wiseman said, "Foolish are you.

It's not the name that's important,
it's the good deeds that a man tries to do.
The world has a great many wrappings
disguising an ugly blight
so really Froghoffer or Frogplopper . . .
you know feller maybe you're right."

"Womens Faults are many while men have only two......
Everything they say,and everything they do."

Every dog has his day . . .

unless he breaks his tail, then he was a weak-end.

This is from a skit June did with Ernest Tubb on the Opry about him not liking the late hours she was keeping.

"I crept upstairs, my shoes in hand
just as the night took wing.
Saw Ernest Tubb three steps above
doing the same durn thing."

Hey Carl...ole buddy...ole knothead.....you're lucky to be seeing me today.
I am ?....why am I so lucky ?
I nearly drowned last night....
How'd ya nearly drown last night...
Well....you see what happened was....
There was a hole in the mattress and........ I fell in the spring!

HEY JUNE....How'd you like that date I got you last night....

That's what I'm talking about !!....
You ortta be ashamed... to even stand there and look at me !....

Why?

He got me a blind date last night...he did....and....I'd just as well not seen it myself!

Why...what was wrong?

IT... was FAT !!.. F A double X FAT !..
BIG !.....I never saw such a man in my life!
Well....You didn't want a little toothpick of a man...did you?
Naw !.....But... I didn't want a whole lumber yard niether !
Didn't turn out like it orta had anyway...I was just with him about 10 minutes and I went home....I did.

Why....what happened ?

Well....you wouldn't want to go out with someone that was stupid, ignorant, ugly, and hard to get along with would you?

No, I don't guess I would.

Well.. he didn't neither !

Poor Valley Girl

msrobzombie — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 11:15:49 CDT

Lyrics Shared By: Terry

She never could give up the homestead on the farm
Where they handed off toboacco in the big tobacco barn,
And the long straight road that ran from the house down to the road
That went to AP Carter's Store, down the logging truck she road.

Oh, she'd sit and she'd gaze at the foggy mountain top
Where the swift hawk circled 'round the Clinch Mountain rocks.
At the school down in Hiltons, she'd read about the world
Created to be conquered by this Poor Valley Girl.

Her mother was an Addington, from over Copper Creek
Her father was of strudy stock, she was royal but meek.
Her laughter was infectious, her music was pure joy.
And she'd win the herats of many men, as she had many a boy.

Her mother became famous, Maybelle and her guitar
With sisters Helen and Anita, the family was four star.
She gave the world two daughters, and a son with auburn curls
And I thank God that he gave me this sweet Poor Valley Girl.
