Thread Name: Origins: Pork/Poke/Polk Salad Annie
Subject: RE: lyric clarify
Just to add that bit of unneeded fluff.....the "polk" as opposed to "poke" and I don't know that you can accurately reproduce in print the way the word is spoken in the deep south. Somewhere between the two in a way, but there IS the vaguest hint of the "L" aand is quite similar to the way you'd say "Pork" in the region, with the vaguest hint of the "R" instead. Clear as mud huh? In the final analysis....Who cares?

Personally I liked the "Gators got your Grannie....CHOMP,CHOMP" part.
