13 Jan 97 - 08:02 PM (#1317) Subject: Raising Arizona.... From: Michael Carr I've been wondering about that lullaby that Holly Hunter sings to the baby at one point. What I can remember goes: For I have murdered that dear little girl, Whose name was Rose Conn-a-lee. Anybody out there know where this came from? The rest of the lyrics? Much obliged for any help!

I did a search on "Rose Connally" but I got nothing. I spelled "Connelly" wrong, though, and that may have splurfled the search engine. Oh happy day! |

If you don't spell it right, they cannot find it, so try searching for the part of the name you know, like [Rose Con*] or a phrase from the song, like [name was Rose] or [murdered that dear]. The square brackets keep the phrase together rather than searching for the three words in any order. |

18 Jan 97 - 08:46 AM (#1425) Subject: RE: Raising Arizona.... From: Ralph Butts Not to belabor the issue, but one more clue. ANY words in the song will work (moon, june, spoon, etc.). So, even if you have only one line, you may be able to get a hit if you use a key word or two. You may hit on a bunch of other songs, too, but so what. This helps when songs have many variants, or you haven't got the foggiest notion of the title or the rest of the words. ...Tiger |

A great tool; a pleasant diversion; and a place to meet kindred spirits. Thanks to The Mudcat for sheltering our baby. |
