Thread Name: song about oysters
Subject: RE: song about oysters
A search of the Bodley Ballad collection gives the following list
Oyster-shell bonnet and dandy chignon (About fashion, not actually oysters)
Oyster boat ("Oh, swiftly goes the oyster boat ...")
The oyster man ("You've heard of a dandy dogs meat blade ...")
The oyster girl ("Many a knight and lady gay ...")
Oysters, sir ("Many a knight and lady gay ...") (same as Oyster Girl?)
