Thread Name: Lyr Req: A Bushel and a Peck (Frank Loesser)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I love you a bushel and a peck
Genie (18 Mar 03 - 04:22 PM) mentioned the song "More I Cannot Wish You (Than To Wish You Find Your Love Today)". At the risk of thread creep, I am rather puzzled by the references in that song to "the sheep's eye" and "the licorice tooth". Is anyone familiar with these expressions, which I assume are terms of endearment, or descriptions of someone "with the love light in his eye"?
