Subject: RE: 'Unprintable Songs' (Randolph/Legman)
Hmm. I didn't think of that. I'll have to look into it, Joe.

Of course I did sing "Week Before Easter" and there's "Lolly Toodum" for today (It was on a Easter Monday, in the spring time of the year, etc)

And at the mildest end of "inappropriate:"

       'Twas on last Easter Monday, the day appointed was,
        For me to go down in the broom to meet my bonny lass.
        How sweet and pleasant was the day I kept her company,
        She was low, low down in the broom awaiting there for me.

                "Low Down in the Broom" from Purslow, Frank, (1968),
