12 Dec 03 - 12:51 AM (#1070751) Subject: Lyr Add: NUTTY LADY OF SHADY LANE (Homer & Jethro) From: Jim Dixon Lyrics transcribed from the sound file at http://www.geocities.com/u2page6/ THE NUTTY LADY OF SHADY LANE (As sung by Homer & Jethro) The nutty of Shady Lane has hit the town like a rock. He pa was an electrician and she was his very first shock. I worship the ground she crawled out of. I wish she'd crawl back agin. If she's ever down by the river, I sure hope that she will drop in. CHORUS: The nutty lady of Shady Lane has the town on the go. The nutty lady of Shady Lane, me, oh, my, oh, what a crow! One day she bought her a brand new dress. The dress she bought was so thin. She asked me how I liked the dress. I answered her with a grin: "Just wait till the sun shines, Nellie." Imagine just how she felt. The dress it was strapless an' backless. Then she discovered it was a belt. CHORUS The nutty lady of Shady Lane has gone an' left me behind. She ran away with a railroad man who fed the lady a line. An' now when I hear the train whistle, an' as it goes on down the track, It makes me feel blue an' so worried. I'm afraid he's bringin' her back. [Recorded by Homer & Jethro on "Let Me Go Blubber," 1963; and "Songs to Tickle Your Funny Bone," 1966.] |

Was this song recorded by any American folk singers to anyone's knowledge? Hard to imagine for me. The Ames Brothers version is one of the oldest songs I can remember. |
