In the spirit of the season, I want all the lyrics (well, at least the first two stanzas) to the famous Christmas carol sung in the Okefenokee Swamp -- the one including references to various U.S. cities. Who can find them for me?

I'm wondering if this was the swamp robboy was going to throw me? This could possibly be Pogo and Pals singing the delightful "Deck Us All With Boston Charlie". Deck us all with Boston Charlie Walla Walla Wash., an' Kalamazoo! Nora's freezin' on the trolley, Swaller dollar cauliflower alley'garoo! Don't we know archaic barrel, Lullaby lilla boy, Louisville Lou? Trolley Molly don't love Harold, Boola boola Pensacola hullaballoo! http://www.fufkin.com/columns/bennett/bennett_08_03.htm Dec 16 06, 5:20 PM

Throw you? Do you mean that robboy threatened to throw you INTO a swamp? Now, what was that all about? But, yes, "Deck Us All With Boston Charlie" is precisely what I had in mind. An annual musical ritual in my childhood home, to the extent that my mother sent me a mug with the words on it a few years ago. I'm sipping tea from it right now. And a silver cauliflower to you!

Nah, course not, he's too much of a sweet and charming gentleman for that. He would have gently placed me in, after making sure my cement boots were set. ;) Dec 16 06, 5:37 PM

More likely me than you. Unless I got him first. Dec 16 06, 5:42 PM
