Subject: RE: Origins: Down the Corderoy road
Some time ago, Art Thieme sent me a cassette of a powerful ballad by Dave Gordon titled 'In Wyandotte County' which uses that line as a refrain - for example:

Your wife, Martha, she yelled from the door at the rear
'You know, we don't allow any redskins in here'
Down by the Corderoy Road

It is probably not the song to which you refer - I think Wyandotte County is in Kansas - but it is first rate.
