Subject: Lyr Add: WALKIN' ROUND IN WOMEN'S UNDERWEAR From: Genie Date: 25 Aug 10 - 10:30 PM WALKIN' ROUND IN WOMEN'S UNDERWEAR (Bob Rivers) Lacy things the wife is missin', Didn't ask for her permission. I'm wearin' her clothes, Her silk pantyhose, Walkin' 'round in women's underwear. In the store there's a teddy, With little straps like spaghetti. It holds me so tight, Like handcuffs at night, Walkin' 'round in women's underwear. In the office there's a guy named Melvin, He pretends that I am Murphy Brown. He'll say, "Are you ready?" We'll say,"Whoa, Man! Let's wait until the wife is out of town!" Later on, if you wanna, We can dress like Madonna, Put on some eyeshade, And join the parade, Walkin' 'round in women's underwear! (Tune: "Winter Wonderland") Copyright Bob Rivers. Recorded on "Twisted Christmas", Rivers click |
Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear & other underwear songs From: GUEST,Lynne Phelps Date: 25 Aug 10 - 08:38 PM This was a patty-cakes hand slapping song when I was in first grade, very elaborate movements: John Brown, John Brown, sitting like a polar bear lost all his underwear, couldn't find it anywhere. Ten days later, found it by a polar bear way dow-own south south south. There were many verses but I can't remember them. One about swimming in a deep blue sea? |
Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear & other underwear songs From: GUEST,TJ in San Diego Date: 26 Oct 09 - 01:46 PM I lost my mind and composed this one in honor of this unique theme: Poor Jon was a young lad who toiled in tall cotton. A handsome young fellow who'd be long forgotten Were it not for the time, when most lads were at war, Young Jon found himself, after work, in a bar. A hard-working crew of young ladies came in, They were doing men's work, a-getting crops in.. They were all filling in for their male counterparts, Engaged in some battle in far distant parts. They soon cast their eyes on our hero, Big Jon, Who, noting the attention, began leading them on. And then, in a flash, poor Jon was surrounded For the young ladies' ardor, nay, lust - soon abounded. He was, after all, the first man they had seen Since their regular consorts had marched from the scene. They grasped at his shirt, and soon ripped it to shreds, They went for the breeches, filling poor Jon with dread. For what, after all, could one gentleman do, To satisfy such a libidinous crew? He made for the door, lost his boots in the scuffle, With his pants at the half-mast, he mastered the shuffle. He shed them right smartly as he ran down the stairs, With the girls in pursuit and himself nearly bare. What saved him from hell, at the hands of those pickers, Was the timely invention of breakaway knickers! He sprinted, he galloped, he ran double fast, He eluded them finally, albeit bare-assed. And so Jon's reputation continued to grow, Where the women are lusty and the tall cotton grows. He saved those young maidens from the dread Scarlet Letter, But, now, thinking on it, he could have done better. Were it me, praise the Lord, I'd have lain down and took it, But poor feckless Jon, why, the fool just forsook it. When the question of honor thus clouded his thinking, Jon fled from the scene with his "tail lights" a-blinking. I'm sure the girls' menfolk were grateful and all, But they laughed ever after 'bout how Jon missed the Ball. |

Mary Hamilton (and also similar in Earl of Warriston) What's it to any man whether or no Whether I'm easy or whether I'm true?

False Lover Won Back and just about any other ballad where a girl gets on a horse As we jogged on together, my boys, together side by side By chance this fair maid's garter, by chance it came untied For fear that she might lose it, I unto her did say "Oh my love your garter is come untied, sing folderoliddle all day. As we jogged on together, my boys, the grass was growin' high I laid this girl upon her back, her garter for to tie While tying of her garter, such sights you never did see And we both jogged on together, me boys, sing folderoliddle all day.

Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear From: Joe_F Date: 17 May 08 - 08:57 PM This thread exemplifies a curious shift that the dictionaries (AHD, MWC13, OED) have not caught up with. "Underwear", to the dictionaries (& me), is an uncountable noun referring generally to undershirts, underpants, etc. But to many Americans these days it means underpants, and the identification is so complete that it takes plural verbs & pronouns. I suppose this must have gotten started as a euphemism -- generality standing in for vagueness, as in "bathroom" for "toilet", "marketing" for "promotion", etc. |

Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear From: GUEST Date: 03 Apr 08 - 12:27 AM "I have lost my underwear" was a song made up by David Graham of Christchurch New Zealand in the 1970s, to the tune of "Bye bye blackbird". The version given here is probably distantly derived from it, as there are lines that don't make sense here, but did make sense originally. It went - I have lost my underwear, I don't care, I'll go bare. Bye bye, long johns. [You were always close to me], tickled me, tee hee hee! Bye bye, long johns. How I loved that little trapdoor behind me, You all knew exactly where to find me. I have lost my underwear, I don't care, I'll go bare. Long johns, bye bye. Not a hundred percent sure of the bit in square brackets, but think it's right. pelliondance |
Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear From: Murray on Saltspring Date: 21 Dec 06 - 08:35 PM A variation of this gives the coy verse Oh Sir Jasper, do not touch me Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me, As she slipped between the sheets with nothing on at all. Tune is the chorus of 'John Brown's Body', of course; and the joke [such as it is] consists in the omission of the last word of the first 3 lines, then the two last words, and so on, till you get "Oh Sir Jasper!", "Oh Sir!" and finally "Oh!" |

It's been a while since I was pushing forty. And I'm much too modest a person to reveal on a public forum whether I think that sleeping with nothing on at all is a glorious, wonderful way to sleep. ;o} |
