In "Nebber Do To Gib It Up So", the last verse goes
Fella on de woodpile barkin' like a dog
Toad in de millpond sittin' on a log
Possum up a gum tree sarcy fat and dirty
Come kiss me girls or I'll run like turkey
What is that word, and how do you pronounce it?
Tim, "Sarcy" is used for Sassy (disrespectful, impudent) or "Saucy" (Impertinent,disrespectful,etc.), as in "She's looking mighty fat and sassy".
"Sarcy", is still commonly used in certian parts of the mountain South.
Thanks. Appreciated.
