Oh! the cat couldn't kitten, and the dog couldn't pup, And the old man couldn't get his proposition up. Oh! the first lady forward and the second lady back, And the third lady's finger up the fourth lady's crack. Swing yer partner! Grease yer pole! Go to Hell, God damn yer soul! pg 136 of the Canfield Collection (ca 1926). This important collection of 307 pages of bawdy songs, rhymes, and ditties is comparable to the Gordon "Inferno" Collection.
