I saw this word in a book called Conundrums. I think it means nonsense words or phrases that occur in songs. I was watching saturday morning cartoons one day and caught a Tom and Jerry episode where one of Jerry's relatives comes to visit, he has a long handlebar moustache and wears a large cowboy hat and says he's come to play music on his guitar on the tv. The song he practices during the rest of the toon is Froggy Went a Courtin' but he has a difficult time because each time he starts the song his guitar string always breaks. Tom's whiskers become his replacements. His version of that tune is a hoot largely because of his southern drawl and his stuttering eef which occurs right after the first phrase (a froggy went a courtin', he did ride) (then he effs) and then he says "crambo". Has anyone seen this toon? reggie
