My daddy sleeps naked

MY DADDY SLEEPS NAKED

"Late again!!" the third-grade teacher sternly said to little Sammy.
"It ain't my fault this time, Miss Crabtree. You can blame this 'un on my
Daddy. The reason I'm three hours late is my Daddy sleeps naked!"

Now, Miss Crabtree had taught grammar school for thirty-some-odd years.
Despite her mounting fears, she asked little Sammy what he meant by that.

Full of grins and mischief, and in the flower of his youth, little Sammy and trouble were old
friends, but he always told her the truth.

"You see, Miss Crabtree, out at the ranch we got this here low down coyote. The last few
nights, he done ate six hens and killed Ma's best milk goat. Last night, when Daddy heard a
noise out in the chicken pen, he grabbed his shotgun and said to my Ma, "That coyote's back again, I'm
a gonna git him!''

"Stay back," Daddy whispered to all us kids! "My Daddy was naked as a jaybird -- no boots, no pants, no shirt!
To the hen house he crawled, just like an Injun on the snoop. Then, he stuck that double barreled 12 gauge shot gun through the window
of the coop."

"As he stared into the darkness, with coyotes on his mind, our old hound dog, Rip, had done gone and woke up and
comes sneaking up behind Daddy, as we all looked on, plumb helpless, old Rip done went and stuck his cold nose in my
Daddy's crack! Miss Crabtree, we all been cleanin' chickens since three o'clock this mornin!"
