@edgarblythe,
Later, alligator. Hope you won't be gone long.
I discovered three things today, y'all.
According to my older sister, my mom sang this one.
"Sure, I've got rings on my fingers, bells on my toes,
Elephants to ride upon, my little Irish Rose;
So come to your Nabob, and next Patrick's Day,
Be Mistress Mumbo Jumbo Jij-ji-boo J. O'Shea.
Across the sea went Rose Magee
To see her Nabob grand.
He sat within his palanquin,
And when she kissed his hand,
He led her to his harem,
Where he had wives galore.
She started shedding a tear;
Said he, "Now have no fear,
I'm keeping these wives here
Just for ornament, my dear."
And my dad sang I'm forever blowing bubbles.
Another great discovery.
Here's Diana Krall singing my telling song
