The lyrics I remember differ a bit from yours, but I suppose there were probably many slightly different versions of it all over the country. My grandmother used to sing it, and I believe that the lyrics she used were
"she stood out there in the midnight air, or something close to that. It seems to me I might be missing a word or two from the last line, but I'll be darned if I can remember any more than that. |

Her tits hung loose like the bass of a goose, Jesus Christ almighty. She jumped in bed and covered up her head, And said I couldn't find her. But I knew damn well she lied like hell, And jumped right in behind her. Oh, she spread her legs, her lily white legs, And then I stuck in my grinder. The white of an egg ran down her leg, And sparks flew out behind her. Two weeks went by, I heaved a sigh, A sigh of pain and sorrow. The pimples thick upon my dick, But there'll be more tomorrow. Nine months went by, I heaved a sigh, A sigh of pain and sorrow. For two little mutts were in her guts, But they'll be out tomorrow. -- Joe Fineman joe_f@verizon.net ||: Sovereignty is the polite old-fashioned name for totalitarianism. :|| |

03 Mar 13 - 11:45 AM (#3485840) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: she stood out there in the midnight air From: JohnInKansas More years ago than I care to admit, a friend sang a song for a small group of us, to the tune of "The Girl I left Behind Me" that included the phrases: She looked so fair in the midnight air As the wind blew up her nightie. So I ... (?) It degenerated from there ... At the time it was implied that it was a "frat song" that he apparently learned at Kansas State University, although I don't kow what fraternity he was in. A few (half dozen) years later the same person insisted he'd never heard of any such song (he'd married by then), so I'm afraid I never heard (to recall) any more of it. Many of the frat-rats had access to "Fraternity songbooks," some of which might have included similar material but the ones I've found (in the antique shops) have mostly been from earlier eras (?? I'm guessing) when mushy sentimentality was more the custom than recycled marching songs (i.e. pre-WWII at least?). While the military has been possibly the richest source for such "bawdiness," very little of it was ever formally published, and if it was ever written down was only distributed as "mimeo" that turns into blank sheets of paper after 4 or 5 years. Some of these were recorded, possibly more frquently than by collectors of bawdy songs, in "college lore" so it's a possible place to look, in the US especially in the few years after large numbers of troops returned home and went to college on the "GI Bill." For unknown reasons, similar creativity seems to have been less common among those involved in the later "police actions." I have no suggestions on how to find such (frat) songbooks except by accident. John |

She looked so well, In the midnight air, The wind blew up her nighty. Her tits rolled up like the balls of a moose, Jesus Christ all Friday. For some reason that I never understood,it was important to say all Friday instead of almighty. It might have been a Catholic thing. I could tell you a great story about this song. This was in my youth in northwest Ohio. |
