The "a-" prefix has long been a common and familiar feature of rural slang � "I ain't a-skeered o' him," "he's a-fixin' to cut loose any time now," "she's a-goin' to bake a cake for my birthday," "you're a-gonna be glad to see me when I come home with all that prize money."
Sorta, kinda, liken the way 'ole Perky talks?
