GUEST,crazy little woman Lyr/Tune Add: Mary of Argyle (23) RE: Lyr/Tune Add: Mary of Argyle 21 Jan 14


Let's see. In the second verse, he sings about her losing her charms as the years pass. Why don't we ever see songs about men losing THEIR charms as the years pass?

Tho' thy belly may grow fatter
And thy pate show bald and clear
Tho' thy feet may be much flatter,
and thy voice grow hoarse from beer...

I think we need to clear things up about the spelling of a word. Apparently Argyle socks come from Argyll. (There is no Argylle.) Apparently Argyll has been joined with Bute to form a larger, more efficient governmental district.

There's also an argyll which is some kind of fancy, silver gravy boat, but that definition comes from Princeton, so I intend to ignore it. Who has time for Ivy Leaguers putting on airs?       :)
