GUEST,just passing through Lyr Req: om si the gom (38) RE: Lyr Req: om si the gom 07 Feb 21


I'm 75 years old. My grandmother used to bounce us on her knee and sing to us. "I had a little nigger and he wouldn't grow no bigger...... so we put him in the window for a show ".   The rest of that verse was the same.   She was in her 60's then and had grown up in the Green Point section of Brooklyn, NY.   

She had a wonderful old time Brooklyn accent. eg. "Pull the chain on the terlt", " Green Pernt"
