I've been emailed that in fact the version of "Shave 'em dry" that I posted was actually written by Lucille Bogan herself. I can't edit the original post, so I'm noting the correction here. Another version was written by Ma Rainey. Fun posts so far, but where are all the colorful innuendos, euphemisms and expressions? Any of these ring a bell for you?
"a poke in the whiskers"
"a knee trembler"
"a chance sandwich"
"Yanking the plank"
"Manning the cockpit"
"double peptide"
"getting your palm read by Mr. Softee"
"rubbing the donut"
and who can resist -
"Yodeling in the canyon" and "the A-frame Orgasm"
