Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Sally's Got Mud Between Her Toes
Thread drift:

Sally sure did get around. She may have had mud between her toes {meaning been a country girl?}, but at some point she moved to the big city-as documented by these verses:


Sally got a house in Baltimo',
Baltimo', Baltimo'
Sally got a house in Baltimo'
And it's three stories high

Sally got a house in Baltimo',
Baltimo', Baltimo'
Sally got a house in Baltimo'
An' it's full of chicken pie

-snip-


These are floating verses used in a number of songs including this one:

Ridin' in the buggy, Miss Mary Jane
Miss Mary Jane, Miss Mary Jane
Ridin' in the buggy, Miss Mary Jane
I'm a long way from home

(chorus)
Who moan for me?
Who moan for me?
Who moan for me, my darlin'?
Who moan for me?
