Sweet Daisy I would give up heaven for the girl you are

‍

She was a beautiful woman

Fresh as the springtime air

With long straight legs a maternal bosom

And lovely brunette hair

‍

She lived in the woods that southern belle

With Jesse and Luke and Bo

She could sling a beer and drive a truck

With her cousins and Uncle in tow

‍

She was fine in cutoffs better in lace

But she had good genes you see

She wore ‘em so tight they had no crease

Tickled Enos’ fantasy

‍

She could flip old Roscoe charm Boss Hogg

Outsmart a big time goon

She could squeal the rubber on little white Dixie

Race all afternoon

‍

She made real good on her country looks

In her twenties an actress true

I respected her and I’ll say she was

Someone that I wish I knew

‍

Not everyone gets a chance in life

To be what they want to be

Not everyone has the discipline

That it takes to keep you free

‍

But Daisy did and she did it well

Despite her restricted part

So I thank her here for many good times

From the bottom of my heart

‍

Daisy I do wish you well

My friend on the TV screen

Where ever you go and whatever you do

Thanks for each and every scene

‍

Once I was young with hopes and dreams

And never a worry or care

Now I’m coming up out of bankruptcy

And getting off welfare

‍

But I’ll still tune in to TNN

Each day at three and nine

Small pleasures thank the sky for them

For you are one of mine

‍

You did a good job sweet Catherine Bach

I hope they paid you well

Someday your kids will watch the Dukes

Oh the stories you will tell

‍
