Subject: RE: Origins: Slough-foot Sue? / Slewfoot Sue
My Dad used to sing this song to me when were fishing/hunting and the lyrics went somthing like;
There was a girl I knew
Her name was Slewfoot Sue,
She was chief engineer at the water works,
Down by old riverside view
A figure was all she had
A face like a soft shell crab
A stiff upper lip like the rudder of a ship
Oh my that girl was sad!
But that's where my money goes
to buy her baby clothes
I'd buy her most anything to keep her in style
I buy her diamond rings
I dont' where anything
HOT DOG!
That's where my money goes
She has a pair of hips
Like two battleships
HOT DOG! That's where my money goes
She wears my BVD's
I stand outside and Freeze
HOT DOG!
That's where my money goes!
