16 May 22 - 12:56 AM (#4141790) Subject: Lyr Req: From: derekpiotr As my research on Lena Turbyfill deepens, I have the following to offer: apparently Lena performed a sort of vaudeville act for the local elementary school in Elk Park, North Carolina a couple of times... all the lyrics her niece remembers are: "I am an old man, with a stick in my hand I go from place to place. I'm not very good, but I try to be..." audio: https://derekpiotr.files.wordpress.com/2022/05/i-am-an-old-man..._.mp3 some of these may be mis-remembered. any leads, anyone? Lena would also perform "Ev'rybody Calls Me Honey" during these "variety" acts, if that places this mystery song in any sort of context. |
