Hell, if you have to ask what that word means, then you probably are too young to be reading this.
Just so that folks coming here don’t think we’re all a bunch of prissy little pure angels (lol lol), I thought I should post some ribaldry for the holiday season on the theme of “we work hard … we play hard … we are bloggers!”
Or something like that.
Wrote a ribald song the other night and recorded it on Gabcast today — as usual, it’s a recording without music over the telephone, so any intrepid listener should turn down the volume due to possible sound distortion. It is Episode #6, so just hit the “play button” next to Episode 6 and you’ll be all set. Here’s the link:
Gabcast! Auld Manhattoe #6
And here’s the lyrics:
15 MEN IN 30 DAYS
by Nightprowlkittyshe was a terrible woman
the way she loved her men
she treated them like candy
oh yes, she did … and thenshe’d toss the box aside
and catch another ride
and when I asked her
to explain,
she sang me this refrain-chorus-
I want 15 men in 30 days
girl, you’re asking me why?
cause I can get ’em
and I can love ’em
till the day I die.I want 15 men in 30 days
And I’m not playin’ you wise
cause I want ’em
and I can find ’em
like a crackerjack surprise!
-end chorus-She was a terrible woman
the way she loved her men
but when I listened to her story
I remembered way back whenI’d toss the box aside
and catch another ride
and when they asked me
to explain,
I’d sing the same refrain.
-back to chorus-
‘Course I am but a mere amateur at ribaldry. Here is a veritable Maestro! None other than the divine Bull Moose Jackson, singing “Big Ten Inch Record”
Have a bit of ribaldry for the holidays! :-p
