Subject: RE: ACNE and Folk Music
Here's a bit of an old song you all might know. I last heard it played nearly forty years ago and never bothered to learn it but it went something like this:

The progression is the slow C A- F G Doo Wop progression.

You said that you'd ask me,
You said that you'd ask me,
To the high school prom,

You din't ask me,
Found out I had acne,
Oh darlin you know,
God put it there.

I don't know whether it was actually recorded by someone or was just made up by people I was hanging around with at the time. Does it sound familiar to anyone?
