It don’t take long to examine a hot horseshoe.

Well, I swanny…

He's busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kickin' contest.

Held his hind leg

Took off like Moody's goose

What a bunch of potlickers

I'm out like a fat girl stealing second.

He sticks to that boy like white on rice.

To put the spit on the apple.

I’m so mad I could eat barbed wire and spit nails.

Pore mouthin’

She's got mud all over her from bum hole to breakfast time.

I’ll tie a knot in yer tail

Talk the legs off a dead mule – or – talk the hind leg off a donkey

Slicker than a greased eel.

Like a calf in clover

Who do you favor?

He’d scare a horse from his oats.

Count the people.

Watermelon talk

Meaner 'n a rattlesnake.
