Matt's post raises another interesting point. "Jean and Dinah", another song with similar themes, is also one of my favourites- the melody as well as the words. I happen to like singing it as well and I feel that when I sing it, it takes on a whole new meaning, emphasising the context. "Jean and Dinah, Rosita and Clementina, round the corner posing, bet your life it's somethin' they sellin. "
