ChAZ- thanks for the additional info and I've sent you a PM which I hope you notice (red at the top of the screen).
Sandra- thanks for decoding "susso"; I've certainly run into some unique jargon in housing songs. I may post a classic example of this from New York City in the late 1970's if I get adequately bored, in a new thread.
Here's a verse from the only one of my songs I ever found posted by someone else in the DT, "The Landlord's Lullaby":
Though the roof is rather leaky, And plaster's peeling off the wall, Come the morn you'll be evicted, Be thankful there's a wall at all!
