Homestead Hillbillies

Come listen to ma' story 'bout some folks I know,
They live out on a homestead and eat all they grow,
They talk to each other 'bout raisin' tasty food,
They're informative and interestin' an' always in the mood.

The BHM Readers place is more than just a shack,
It's a place for friends to meet, and to keep on coming back,
This Yahoo Group's our common ground and we're all welcome here,
So join our social gathering friend, and be of good cheer.

If you have a problem friend, don't be afraid to share,
We like to know your business, and we really, really care.
We'll give you advice and sometimes point the way,
To a website with the info that'll maybe save the day.

We're doers and we're wishers and we're dreamers and what's more
We're proud we chose this lifestyle though it sometimes is a chore.
We're gettin' where we're goin' and we'll be there some fine day,
So jump up on the bandwagon, we'll help you find the way.

Atlantic to Pacific, way up north to deepest south,
Distance is no object when you have a virtual mouth.
So tell to all and sundry what you really want to say,
And share it here good neighbor, now y'all have a nice day!
