I usually come from the south,



A howdy comes from my mouth.



But then I come from the north,



Or skywards from the earth.



I may be a jolly old jerk,



Or even a delay, at work.




What am I?

          This might be...




          Hiccup




          I usually come from the south,
          A howdy comes from my mouth.




          A hick is an American derogatory term for a Southerner




          But then I come from the north,
          Or skywards from the earth.




          Followed by up (up north or going up)




          I may be a jolly old jerk,




          A hiccup is an involuntary muscle jerk (but can be considered amusing)




          Or even a delay, at work.




          ...And the word also means a small delay.
