Subject: Bawdy - With a jingle by jingle
This is a double entendre ballad about a blacksmith's conversation with an unhappily married woman. There are the usual references to his forge and his metal getting hotter and harder. It's far from an obscure piece I would have thought, but then again I haven't heard it in the last thirty years or so. In a minor key as I recall.

I couldn't find it in the DT or Forum.

Regards, John
