Lighter Origin: Old Abner's Shoes - What's the story? (30) RE: Origin: Old Abner's Shoes - What's the story? 14 May 20


Thans, cnd. I'm looking forward to your findings.

By 1864, $20 in Confederate money was worth only a few cents in gold.

Looks like "Folk Songs of Florida" may be the key to it all.

ISTR that Ernie Ford's version has an inauthentic "I can take the hide off the yankee" instead of "I can whip the scoundrel."
