GUEST,Scotty Macfarlane Origins: Maid of Argenta (Jimmie Driftwood) (45) RE: Origins: Maid of Argenta 23 Aug 08

In the Maid of Argenta the lyric is "prattle" not "paddle". Prattle is small talk or meaningless but polite conversation. And the name is "Parmenta' not "Pimenta". I have an original album from the 50's and grew up listening to these songs. They're great fun it is great to know others are discovering and rediscovering this man's music.
