There is a recording of this tune by the Carter Family. I don't happen to have the CD or LP handy, but I have a tape -- no lyrics. Does anyone have the words? I can figure out most of it, but I can't make the chorus sound like anything but "My child emerged a pervert/ and told the ancient trout..."

I know they had something else in mind. I laugh hysterically when I hear it. I've played it for several people but no one around here can seem to make sense of it either.

I've tried a couple of different searches, but haven't turned anything up.

Any help is appreciated.
