Thread Name: Bawdy songs
Subject: RE: Bawdy song
Sometimes the bawdiness is in, ahem, the delivery. One of the finest examples of a bawdy song I ever heard was late one night in the Ranch Tavern (Albany NY) when one of the regular singers sang Rock of Ages with no change in the tune or lyrics, but a few changes in emphasis that turned the first verse into a double entendre.
