Interviewer's Comment

The word "football" doesn't sound right in this song, but I was unable

to find it in print, and Sally seemed to think it was the right word.

Sally is a very wicked old woman and swears like a sailor, but she has a

remarkable memory.

She was "bred and born" in Rusk County, Texas and says she came to Pine

Bluff when it was "just a little pig."

Says she was sixteen when the Civil War began.
