Subject: RE: Lyr Req: It Rained A Mist
Yeesh, that is nasty! I teach a song of one verse that resembles the first two lines, but the melody is completely different.

It rained a mist, it rained a mist,
It rained all over the town, town, town,
It rained all over the town.

It's a charming little ditty and I was hoping this thread would give me more charming little verses or details about the song. Not so!
Did this song give rise to the dreadful stereotype against Jews , or was it merely adding fuel to the already burning fire?
