Ten Commandments - Simplified

Some people have trouble with all those 'shall's' and 'shall not's' in the Ten Commandments. In Southeastern Missouri they translated the 'King James' into 'Butler County' language. (1) Just one God (2) Put nothin' before God (3) Watch yer mouth (4) Git yourself to Sabbath 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 That's it, plain an' simple.
