Thread Name: Origins: Momma Don't Allow? / Mama Don't 'Low
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Momma Don't Allow? / Mama Don't 'Low
We always sang it, "Momma don't 'low (allow) no juice harp playin' 'round here". Juice harp being a jaw harp. But my folks were from Tennessee, and their folks from Ireland, so the good Lord only knows where we got it from!
