Uglier than a burnt stump

Let’s put the chairs in the wagon.

Does a snake have hips?

If that boy had a good idea it would die of loneliness.

Like a buzzard roosted in it

She can burn water.

As scarce as hens teeth.

It’s raining like pouring piss out of a boot.

Slower than a Sunday afternoon.

Put on the dog

As easy as herding chickens/cats

It's cold enough to hang meat in here.

Go off half-cocked

In your life, you’ve got to eat a peck of dirt.

He ain't got no home trainin.

Sunday face

Fair to middlin’

It’s hotter than the hinges of Hell.

Lower than the belly of a snake in a wagon track

If you can't hang with the big dawgs, get off the porch!

Strong as a new well rope
