Subject: RE: Origins: Black Cat Piddled in the White Cat's Eye
Fascinated to find Black Cat Piddled here to another polka tune, rather than the Girl I Left/Brighton Camp one to which I learnt the words all those years ago, and with which it has been associated thruout this thread from OP onwards. An interesting title to have attributed to a dance tune; with presumably some reference to the other tune, to which I imagine the words would originally have been sung [by cockney immigrants?], so that the title was "in the air" when the new tune was composed as a "well-known Australian bush song"???
