Big Mouth Luella


When we were in Austin for Smithers and Joy's wedding, we ran into Marcia Ball's son, who mentioned that his mother had a song about a girl named Luella.  He cautioned us that it might not be the most flattering song... Marcia was inspired to write it when she found the phrase "Why'd you go and tell Luella?" written in the margin of an old hymnal.

We looked it up on YouTube this morning, and it's fantastic!
