PHJim Generic verses (6) Generic verses 09 Feb 16


At a jam the other night, I noticed folks singing songs I'd never heard before with verses that I've heard many times in other songs and even in other genres:

"Got a pocket full of nickels and a hand full of dimes,
Got a house full of children; ain't none of 'em mine."

"If you don't like my peaches, Baby don'tcha shake my tree.
Get outa my orchard and let my peaches be."

"I've got a woman, she's so tall,
She sleeps in the kitchen with her feet in the hall."

Any more of these generic verses? And where have you heard them?
