Martha Burns Origins: Gold Watch and Chain (23) RE: Origins: Gold Watch and Chain 03 May 10


Not to go too far astray, but there's a "Honeymooners" episode that's sort of like that. Ralph pawns his bowling ball to get a present for Alice, and Alice presents Ralph with a bowling ball bag.
    Kind of prefer this to "Gold Watch & Chain," actually. Have never much cared for the song because the objects -- "gold watch and chain," "diamond ring," and even "heart in my bosom" -- are such bland cliches. A song about a "bowling ball & bag" might have some interest, though.
