Margo, I AGREE BUT- see what Wysiwyg and others have done with the word nigger. We have two threads about a song, each with many posts, as a result; one called Run, Nigger, Run, the other Run,----run or some such. In the former see the big red letters warning correspondents off. I agree with you; immature hand wringing and censorship of history is responsible, but sometimes I get a little gun-shy.
Here is the thread; the specific post is 23 Sep 01 12:47AM: Here Also see posts following my insertion of some new lyrics on 23 Dec 01.
In the songs I have posted here, only the word written as n----r was censored. All the other dashes: ---, are words that I can't decipher from the Levy website. A few that I think that I have deciphered but am not certain about bear a ? in front.
If you can fill them in, I would greatly appreciate it.
