Folk music

A mammoth illustrated collection of more than 125 funny songs, mostly in the folk tradition, interlaced with a multitude of parodies, jokes, recitations and sayings collected by the author over a lifetime of performing.

Each song has complete lyrics, melody line and suggested accompaniment chords. Included are Take My Bridgework Back To Mother, Send Me To Glory In a Glad Bag, The Housewife's Lament and The Piddling Pup. The reading Why She Didn't Become a Baptist leaves even church groups roaring in laughter.

More fun rib-ticklers include The Limerick Song (suitable for general audiences), Little Willie verses and the parody My Grandfather's Feet Were Too Strong For His Shoes. A choice collection of photos and vintage illustrations add the final touch for the enjoyment of this top-notch collection.

• More than 125 funny songs --- lyrics, tunes, and suggested accompaniment chords.
