Another stanza is Queen Elizabeth fell death in love with me. We were married in Milwaukee secretly. Oh, I took her and I shook her And I went with General Hooker To fight the mosquitoes down in Tennessee. I believe it is a very old Tennessee folk song I appreciate any assistance Thanks Stacey

I notice there's no tune - anybody want to post one? -Joe Offer- Try https://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=65907#3525704 |
