Joe_F	Steamboat coonjine songs (67* d)	RE: Steamboat coonjine songs	28 May 21
Guest Mim's song appears in (of all places!) The New Song Fest (1958, p. 80): Sing a Song of Cities Sing a song of cities; roll dat cotton bale; Rustabout am happy, as long's he's out of jail; Norfolk fo' its oyster shells, Boston fo' its beans; Cha'leston fo' it's rice an' corn, but fo' lassies, New Orleans. A better version, on the whole. If I dared, I would follow it up with The Beer Bottle (in the same book) and even "Man on top of woman".
