Duet by Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner Writer Dallas Frazier Copyright 1967 As time goes by the tales grow taller about possum in Possum Holler As a young man I'd go a courtin' with my sweetheart so young and fair Down the mountain to Possum Holler that's where he'd always find me waitin' there Now I tell my mama that I's goin' out walkin' neath the moonlight so bright and fair And I'd tell daddy I was huntin' possum And take off a grinnin' and a slickin' down my hair As time goes by the tales grow taller about possum in Possum Holler Then one evening in Possum Holler my sweetheart's daddy stopped all our fun Yeah we got married in Possum Holler just you and me my daddy and daddy's gun As time goes by the tales grow taller about possum in Possum Holler Now when they see a possum hunter young and handsome and a smellin' fair We just lean back and bust our laughin' cause we know there ain't no possum there As time goes by the tales grow taller about possum in Possum Holler About possum in Possum Holler
