Subject: Joan the leather queen From: Dave Bryant Date: 14 Jan 02 - 06:34 AM Does anyone have the words of "Joan the leather queen". It's a parody of "Jim the carter lad" and has a choras which goes something like: Crack, crack goes my whip, Oh how the lashes sting. I tie up chaps in chains and straps And lash them till they sing. I make them roar so loudly, While I stand all serene. There's none can hurt a man so bad, As Joan the leather queen. It's not for me - honest - I want Linda to sing it - preferably without the actions - although there are some folkies I can think of who could do with the odd bit of discipline/correction. If you can think of any suitable recipients who will be going to Stony Stratford, I'll try and make sure that she packs her Satin Basque, Fishnet Stockings, Leather Boots etc.... whoops I'd better go and get a cold shower ! |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Joan the leather queen From: Geoff the Duck Date: 14 Jan 02 - 02:20 PM I don't have the words, but the song was written by Joan Shuttleworth. Her Husband Ron is a long time member of Coventry Mummers. If the forum does not come up with the words, perhaps you could get in touch via the Mummers web site - Coventry Mummers. Quack! GtD. |

My name is Joan, the Leather Queen; you all know what I do. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Joan the leather queen From: Dave Bryant Date: 15 Jan 02 - 05:43 AM Thanks for such a cornucopia of lyrics Jude - think that will keep Linda busy for hours - learning them I mean. Thanks to Geoff as well for the information about Joan and Ron Shuttleworth. I'm pretty sure I first met Ron over 30 years ago at Keele Folk Festival. Did he work for Landrover ?

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Joan the leather queen From: JudeL Date: 15 Jan 02 - 05:58 AM The question is : is she going to dress the part? ....... if so I just happen to have a whip she might like to borrow - curtesy of Anne Marie who was the landlady of Micca's local |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Joan the leather queen From: Dave Bryant Date: 16 Jan 02 - 04:38 AM Well, as I suggested at the top of the thread, Linda might be persuaded to bring her red satin basque, fishnets etc. to Stony. I do own a riding crop (a relic of perfectly proper equine activities I'll have you know - although we've all comitted beastiality and necrophilia by flogging the odd dead horse). How big is the whip ? - does size matter ?. Perhaps a little "discipline" could help to "correct" Mudcat's financial problems. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Joan the leather queen From: JudeL Date: 16 Jan 02 - 12:25 PM it's 5ft long mostly quite stiff with a tassel like bit at the end. I'm told it's a carriage whip. Jude |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Joan the leather queen From: Dave Bryant Date: 17 Jan 02 - 04:45 AM That's much bigger than my one (story of my life) - bet you could raise welts like nobody else (Tom Lehrer). Incidently if size doesn't matter to women, why are all the dildos that I see (when Linda drags me into Anne Summers) so large ? |
Subject: Joan the Leather Queen? From: GUEST,Lee Thompson-Herbert Date: 24 Jan 02 - 01:25 AM The White Rats are in desperate NEED of this song. We know it's a parody of Joe the Carrier Lad, and that it was posted here some time ago. Please help the Rats continue their tradition of scandalizing the morris community. We have gigs coming up in April that are practically screaming for a song like this. Lee Thompson-Herbert lee@retro.com Head Muso, White Rats Experimental Morris The Music Top |
