Zorro	Blues Lyrics Translation (80* d)	RE: Blues Lyrics Translation	31 Oct 98
I agree with Steve Friedman on all counts. I have a book called "Country Blues" by Samuel Charters. He mentioned the term "black snake" which was in many songs and of course it refered to a man's penis. (Eeek, I said the "P" word. "Dust my broom" to me is leaving, making a change, getting rid of something you've been carrying around. There is a comparable saying in the bible, I think.. "When you leave that town, shake the dust off your feet.." meaning, (to me) the same thing, like saying "I've had it." Blessed be, Zorro
