Thread Name: I have lost my underwear & other underwear songs
Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear & other underwear songs
As kids we used to sing that one this way:
The old grey mare,
Sat in a 'lectric chair,
Burnt off her underwear,
Couldn't get another pair,
Many long years ago.
And Mississippi John Hurt's "Richland Women Blues" contains this verse:
Give me rosy red garters,
Pink hose on the feet,
Turkey red bloomers,
With a rumble seat.
