JB | Lyr Req: Lass of Islington (12) | RE: bawdy song prostitute takes john to court | 26 Apr 98 |
Such a wealth of song info! Both songs sound interesting, but neither is exactly on target. As I remember, the whore complains to the judge that she rented her cellar for the night to this gentleman, but he refused to pay her. The gentleman replied that he didn't really use her cellar and should not have to pay. She replied that there were two hogsheads (barrels) by the door, why didn't he just roll them on in? And the judge finds for the lady. |
