Sunday face

Don’t pay it no never mind.

He's steal the bridle off a nightmare.

Like a martin to his gourd

They ate supper before they said grace.

If that boy was any smarter we’d have to water him every week.

If that ain't right then grits ain't groceries.

Hotter than a June bride.

You are about as grateful as a toothache.

If a bird had his brains, he fly backwards.

Well when you go through a briar patch you don’t know which briar scratched you.

Crooked as a dog's hind leg.

He don’t use his kindlin’ to get a fire started.

The ox is in the ditch.

He lost his hat, ass, and spats!

You look like something the cat drug in and the dog won’t eat.

Don't go back on your raisin'

Too mean for Jesus, too dumb for the Devil

A shallow brook is noisiest.

She’d scare a haint up a thorn tree.

Sober as a judge
