Subject: RE: BS: The case of the missing sturgeon
This ditty has been rattling around pubs and private song parties for at least a century. But it's nice to see more verses.
I added a parallel verse to "When Jones Ale Was New" a while back which runs like this:
The next to come in was a virgin surgeon, And she didn?t need any urging, No, she didn?t need any urging For to join with the jovial crew And after she downed several whiskey ryes, She took out her scalpel and held it high, Saying "Who with me this night will lie?" When Jones' Ale was new, me boys! When Jones' Ale was new!
