Subject: RE: Civil War songs - Goober Peas
My problem with unroasted nuts of all stripes is that I have what are referred to in technical terms as "deep teeth" and they get stuck. Roast! Salt! Forever!

I remember this song from a collection of 45's I had when a child, put out I think by Disney, of folk songs. This is whence I learned Goober Peas, and Erie Canal, and Working on the Railroad, among others, and it's what probably set me on a lifetime of love for folk music (that and Mr. Spiropolous in 4th grade who played his guitar for us and taught us The Titanic and other old-timey tunes before he was sent to Viet Nam).
