John M.	Lyr(rude) req: She's a ragbag shabag (8)	RE: Lyr(rude) req: She's a ragbag shabag	01 Feb 05
Hello everyone, The song "Shagbag, Ragbag" is known to me as "Who is Sylvia?" or "My Girl" (recording) Do you sing this song? If so when/where did you learn it? Any help is appreciated. Sincerely, John Mehlberg john@mehlberg.com ~ My, mostly traditional, bawdy songs, toasts and recitations website: www.immortalia.com ~ WHO IS SYLVIA? (recording) Who is Sylvia? What is she? She's a rag bag, a shag bag, an automatic whore. She's got a fanny like a big barn door She can run, skip and jump Catch a barrel up her cunt. She's the girl for me. Notes: This is transcribed from the Medical Students Sing Rugby Songs [1970] the last of the Sportsdic rugby records series. The "Rag bag, shag bag..." verse is sung to "Turkey in the Straw". This song is also found on The I's Reunion Record (1986) a New Zealand 45 record under the title "My Girl". Compare this song with Mary Anne Burns (the Queen of all the Acrobats). Recordings: Sportsdic Records Medical Students Sing Rugby Songs [1970] Who Is Sylvia? Time: 0:29 Intercoursers Records/Rugby Records. [Recorded September 1986, Palmerston North.] The I's Reunion Record My Girl [Who Is Sylvia?] Time: 0:13
