Tambey 'Tammy' Tyree: [continues the recitation] A sight of strange things happened, powerful strange. / / My pappy was a musical man / He had him an old bull fiddle strung with hairs from a horse's tail. / His music was so sweet, he'd draw the birds down from the trees / And they flew along with him, singin', before and behind / That's what brought us all grief.
Party Guest: Tell us some more, sister. How can the birds make you trouble?
