10 Commandments – Southern Style

Some people have trouble with all those 'shall's'  and 'shall not's' in the Ten commandments.

Folks just aren't used to  talking in those terms.  

So, in middle Tennessee they translated the 'King James' into' Jackson County ' language..... no joke, (posted on the wall at Cross Trails Church in Gainesboro , TN )

(1)  Just one God.

(2)  Put nothin' before God.

(3)  Watch yer mouth.

(4)  Git yourself to Sunday meetin'.

(5)  Honor yer Ma & Pa.

(6)  No killin'.

(7)  No foolin' around with  another fellow's gal.

8)  Don't take what ain't yers.

(9)  No tellin'  tales or gossipin'.

(10)  Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's  stuff.

Now  that's plain an' simple.

Y'all have a nice  day.
