TheOldMole Lyr Req: Crocheting and Blind Lemon (6) Crocheting and Blind Lemon 16 Jan 00


Blind Lemon Jefferson has a verse:

I got a gal, she crochets all the time (2x) If you don't stop crocheting, girl you gonna lose your mind.

What the hell is he talking about?

I mean...I know what he's talking about, more or less...but how is this a metaphor for it? And where did it come from? And is there anything similar in other blues?
