Fiddlegrrl Lyr Req: What song is this? (5) Lyr Req: What song is this? 27 Nov 08


Hello, everyone,

My father in law is trying to remember the lyrics to a song. Here are the first couple of lines:

"I was just a serving maid down in New Orleans
'Twas there I met a sailor boy just back from the Philippines"

He can't remember any more.

Indeed, it does sound like the opener of a zillion possible songs; nonetheless, I Googled around (including the DT) and didn't come up with anything.

Any hints would be appreciated.

Thank you!
