Thread Name: Bob Wills question
Subject: Bob Wills question
Hi all,

I'm a huge Bob Wills fan. I've got a recording of him doing "Milk Cow Blues". Now I'm sure he recorded this several times during his career. The version I have has him starting off saying "Ah, a little stroll down to the old barn. First, here comes Pig." I assume he's referring to Hargus "Pig" Robbins, because a piano solo starts up. Then there's a WAY cool three part guitar harmony part, and then the fiddler, instead of singing the lyrics, SCATS along with what he's playing. Just a tremendous recording. But something has been bugging me forever. At the very end, Wills says something that sounds very much like "Saw pie sawed!" And for the life of me I can't figure out what the hell that means. Anybody out there know or have any idea? Any insight or knowledge would be greatly appreciated. It's driving me nuts.

Peace-

solid
