On a serious note, can anyone refer me to the lyrics and/or melody of "Get Out of the Buckwheat Mother, You're Running against the Grain" or other ballads of such ilk? Ed

Or "Make A Run For The Roundhouse, Nellie, They'll Never Corner You There."
Or, "She Was Only The Jockey's Daughter, But All The Horsemen Knew 'er."
Or, "You Came Across On The Mayflower, What's Wrong With The Holiday Inn?"
Or, "Don't Go Near The Shrimp-boats, Mother, Father's Coming Home With The Crabs."

"She Was Only the Telegrapher's Daughter, But she Did-it, Did-it, Did-it." (from Spider Robinson)

(Spider also mentioned "The Camera Song:" "Lens get together 'bout half past eight, I'll ring your Bell and Howell...")

and there's always

"Don't Run Through the Screen Door, Grammaw, You'll Strain Yourself."
