Thread Name: Lyr Req: Swinging on the Outhouse Door
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Swinging on the Outhouse Door
We sang on the school bus, between 1946 and 1954, a medley of A Man Without a Woman and Silver Dollar- a remarkable educational adjunct, I think, since I was able to learn unconsciously from the 7th and 8th graders, as a first grader and onward, the songs, harmony singing and even improv!- but the relationship to the thread is that Grandma swung on that outhouse door as the tag to Silver Dollar.
...The way a silver dollar goes from hand to hand
So a woman goes from man to man,
And there was Grandma...
I remember hearing it tagged to other songs as a young teenager, but I don't temember what.
