GUEST,pml4sail Origins: Slough-foot Sue? / Slewfoot Sue (51* d) RE: Origins: Slough-foot Sue? / Slewfoot Sue 18 Mar 12


My father (b. 1906) used to sing this song when he was a little "tipsy" (to my mother's consternation)the following lyrics:

"There once was a girl I knew by the name of slough foot Sue-
She was chief engineer at the shirt tail factory, down by the riverside view.
Oh, a shirt was all she had and a face like a soft-shelled crab-
Every nite she wood hussle with a button on her bustle-
and oh boy was she bad!"
