@layman,

That's not Cajun it's country/old timey. First heard it decades ago, by Flatt and Scruggs, who did the canonical version.. Heard it later by sokmeone several decades earlier, can't remember who. aybe Charlie Poole and the NC Ramblers, because Wikipedia lists an early version with Posey Rorer playing on it, and he also played with Poole, food song, eh?

So I listened to the clip and the first song was real familiar, and I finally pinned it down, Here's your music trivia quiz for the night/morning/whatever it is where you re, iz. Who had a minor grade hit with a stage-Cockney version of it the 50s, who also was a role model for the beatles?

@layman,

Don't know if you got the same youtube links I did, but that linked to a live version of the song by, of all people, Dr Hook, who did a credible if goofy version. Try that too.

@MontereyJack,

Yeah, Dr. Hook says he first heard the tune down on the bayou, eh?

Not cheated and looked it up but off the top of my head I would say Lonnie Donegan, who is much better known over here.

Imran Yusuf shows we're much stronger when we pull together. We will not be defeated, and we won't let the filth that wishes to divide us win. That why I don't talk to such garbage, human beings only.

Speaking at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum on Friday, Putin theorized that Angela Merkel's recent outburst about not being able to rely on the United States anymore "was an expression of her resentment over a limited sovereignty."

@gungasnake,

I'm really surprised that Trump didn't bitch-slap her sorry ass around a little when he was in close proximity, ya know? Somebody must have slipped some ludes into his coffee that morning.
