Nice touch, Sean. I like the replacement of white with rich - and I guess the converse (ie. black/poor) would work in similar circumstances. When you think about when the songs were written it was probably a good rule of thumb that the rich folks were white and the poor folks black. Not much better in some places now I guess but at least we are working at fixing it!I will certainly remember the point though and see if I can come up with any other similar substitutions when I come across other contentious wordings. Picanininnies - poor folks kids for instance? Scans anyway!
Thanks again
