Subject: RE: Origins: Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah From: PoppaGator Date: 16 Dec 03 - 05:38 PM It never occured to me that Dinah, with whom someone is strummin' on the old banjo in the kitchen, might be a *locomotive*! So, Glauber, maybe you already know more about this than the rest of us! Fee fye fiddle-ee i-o |

Subject: Origins: Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah From: glauber Date: 16 Dec 03 - 05:34 PM Hello, if there's anyone who knows, she or he is probably in this forum, so i'll ask: why is the locomotive called Dinah? My guess is it has something to do with "dynamite", but maybe there's a better explanation? Another question: are there any additional meanings on "someone's in the kitchen with Dinah playing on that old banjo"? I have a feeling that there may be sexual overtones, as in another old song (Irish) where it says "i took my fiddle out and played my love a song". Thanks for indulging my curiosity. glauber |
