Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Paw Paw Patch, anyone?
Joe, we 'danced(?)' to 'Paw Paw Patch' here in NZ. back in the '40's. Same routine as you published above, as I recall, but - one had to bend over and pick up an imaginary paw paw (while still skip-dancing) at the appropriate line. Wheww.. I couldn't do it now, a slipped disc would be the minimum injury .. ;)

BTW, haven't sampled a paw paw in a half century.

Cheers - Sam
