    The Ten Commandments - Need To Know Information
    "Backwoods" Type of Ten Commandments

    Some people in the "backwoods" of America have trouble with all those "shalls" and "shall nots" in the Ten Commandments. Folks just aren't used to talking in those terms. So, some folks in middle Tennessee got together and translated the "King James" into "Jackson County" language,.... no joke, read on... The Hillbilly's Ten Commandments (posted on the wall at Cross Trails Church in Gainesboro, TN.)

    (1) Just one God.
    (2) Honor yer Ma &Pa.
    (3) No tellin' tales or gossipin'.
    (4) Git yourself to Sunday meetin'
    (5) Put nothin' before God.
    (6) No foolin' around with another fellow's gal.
    (7) No killin.'
    (8) Watch yer mouth.
    (9) Don't take what ain't yers.
    (10) Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's stuff.

    Now that's kinda plain an' simple, don't ya think? Y'all have a nice day!     :)

    Haha that really isn't that much of a joke to me (still funny though) because I can see people that would actually like that better than the normal 10 commandments o.O
