Always thought this song could use a chorus but never came up with a good one.
The version my mother collected from neighbors in Maine had one explicit line the others above don't have:
"My prick it was rising just like a balloon,
From the treatment I got at the Red Light Saloon."
Love the version by Jon Bartlett.
Cheerily,
