go at like a boy killing snakes
have hung up and salted
It'll be a long day in January
If it ain't chickens, it's feathers
faunch around
stand there with bare face hanging out
have a bad case of the simples
have more than one string to fiddle
I felt like a penny waiting for change
I wasn't brought up in the woods to be scared by owls
