edna Posted November 1, 2004 Report Share Posted November 1, 2004 I remember an album by the Troggs, dressed like actual troggs... it was in the 60s, of course, but it made me laugh... I was maybe 6 or 8... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earth-Angel Posted November 1, 2004 Report Share Posted November 1, 2004 I know nothing about the first but my fatherinlaw has a 78 with cover titled Slap Her Down Again Pa, Slap Her Down Again. The songs about the sister not being quite the lady. It's hilarious! That sounds delightful! Almost as nice as: This cover leads me to wonder the relationship is between the 2 people :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamisammy29 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 I know nothing about the first but my fatherinlaw has a 78 with cover titled Slap Her Down Again Pa, Slap Her Down Again. The songs about the sister not being quite the lady. It's hilarious! I remember that song...great one! I haven't heard it in a good 20 years but I can still remember the chorus. I was able to find all the lyrics. Arthur Godfrey originally sang this lovely little ditty. So, here's a MUSICAL INTERLUDE: "Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Make her tell us more pa Tell us where she's been We don't want our neighbors Talkin' bout our kin Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Well pa and ma were so darn sore They woke me up one night There was an awful cussin' And ma said pa was right They was a-waitin' sister Bess Who never kept her word The Sun came up as Bess came in And this is what I heard Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Make her tell us more pa Tell us where she's been We don't want our neighbors Talkin' bout our kin Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Now poor old Bess got so darn mad She ran away one day To meet that travellin' salesman With city-slickin' ways We ran and stood beside them though With shotguns by our sides Me and Deke and pa and ma Who yelled as they came by Why don't you slap her down again pa Slap her down again Yeah, make her tell us more pa Tell us where she's been You know that we don't want our neighbors Talkin' bout our kin Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Now ma and pa they planned for Bess To marry Deacon Brown And not that travellin' salesman Who always came around They made poor Bessie go to church Her face was mighty red The deacon took one look at her And this is what he said Oh, slap her down again pa Slap her down again Make her tell us more pa Tell us where she's been We don't want our neighbors Talkin' bout our kin Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Doesido Oh yes hot stuff Well the moral of this story girls Is don't stay out too late Unless you take your shoes off Outside your pappy's gate If ma don't hear you comin' in She won't lay down the law And you won't have to worry Cause you won't see much of pa Ohhh Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Make her tell us more pa Tell us where she's been We don't want our neighbors Talkin' bout our kin Slap her down again pa Slap her down again Take that and that and that" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
