Transcript of “Can’t and Won’t”
Following up on our discussion about the phrase,
Can’t died in a cornfield,
We heard from Todd White in Woodstock, Virginia,
Who said, my dad used to say to us,
Can’t never could, won’t never will.
Yeah, that’s a good one.
So this is the stuff you say to kids when they say,
I can’t do it, Daddy, it’s too hard.
That’s right.
Instead of try harder.
Can’t never could, won’t never will.
