THE SOUTHERN TEN COMMANDMENTS
| This is much easier to remember! |
Ten Commandments
Some people have trouble with all those ‘shall’s’ and ‘shall not’s’ in
the Ten Commandments. Folks just aren’t used to talking in those terms. So, in middle Tennessee they translated the ‘King James’ into ‘ Jackson
County ‘ language….no joke (posted on the wall at Cross Trails Church
in Gainesboro , TN ).
(1) Just one God
(2) Put nothin’ before God
(3) Watch yer mouth
(4) Git yourself to Sunday meetin’
(5) Honor yer Ma & Pa
(6) No killin’
(7) No foolin’ around with another fellow’s gal.
(8) Don’t take what ain’t yers
(9) No tellin’ tales or gossipin’
(10) Don’t be hankerin’ for yer buddy’s stuff
Now that’s plain an’ simple.
Y’all have a nice day now ya hear!
And bless your little heart….
