Thread Name: My Four Reasons - Banjo Ikey
Subject: My Four Reasons - Banjo Ikey
I've transcribed the lyrics as close as I can get them from Banjo Ikey's youtube clip with Martin and Bogan. The first line mentions "joe". What does this mean, or am I mis-hearing it?

                My Four Reasons            Banjo Ikey Robinson

You know I hate a gal who's full of "Nos", hits the jug and uses joe
Why that's one of my four reasons

Who rolls her hose below her knees, and flirts with those and flirts with these
Why that's two of my four reasons

And when she uses garlic, eats Limburger cheese
Why I get a weakness down below my knees

Now folks I told you this and that, my mind's at ease
Why that's all of my four reasons
