GUEST,me to you | Mathy Groves - oil of green (40) | RE: Mathy Groves - oil of green | 17 Nov 13 |
Could have been. But I don't remember it that way. "Oil of green" makes more sense though if there is a custom in some places of oiling cloth in order to waterproof it. Or it may have been a leather suit dyed green and oiled. I do not remember this as "olive." And this must have been from Folk Songs of North America by Lomax. I don't have the book with me now. |
