Ode To Billie Joe Lyrics - Sheryl Crow

It was the third of June 

Another sleepy, dusty 

I was out chopping cotton 

And my brother was bailing hay 

And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat 

And Mama hollered at the back door 

"Y'all remember to wipe your feet" 

Then she said 

"I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge 

Today Billy Joe McAllister 

Jumped off the Talahachee Bridge"
