How I wish I could get it together, here in the S.C.A. ' Fought a tourney 'bout a week ago, I was hoping to win a fight. But alas I should have known it, My first two opponents Were six foot, five inch knights. CHORUS Well the revel it looked promising, They brought in six big kegs of mead. But within twenty minutes, The mead it was finnished By the boys of the chivalry. CHORUS I was flattering a lady fair, In hopes my charm, her favour would gain. She said, "You '11 never take me hostage, "Though it's true I'm into bondage, "But only with golden chains." CHORUS (Well) The solution's looking obvious ••• You know you can't really drink or fight; And you can't seduce a maid 'less you got a golden chain, Spurs and a belt of white. Another tournament fight and they're battered and bloody; I got good liquor and I just got laid! Now I've finally got it together, I won the accolade! -Conn McNeal D-1 THE BALL OF BALLYNOOR They all came down to Ballynoor, There there was a ball. There also was a wedding, But that ain't tellin' all! CHORUS Balls to your partner! Arse against the wall! If you canna get fucked on a Saturday night You'll never get fucked at all! First they did it simple The village pervert, he was there Each lad and lassie mated. How do you fancy that? But pretty soon the fucking got Amusing himself by abusing himself So fucking complicated. And catching the drops in his hat. There was doin' in the barley, The county postman-; he was there, Doin' in the oats; He had a dose of pox; Most were doin' lassies, He could not fuck the lassies, But some were doin' goats. So he fucked the letter box. There was buggery in the parlor, The village blacksmith he was there, Sodomy on the stairs, A mighty man was he; You couldn't see the carpet He lined the ladies against the wall For the mass of pub~c hairs. And fucked them three by three. Four and twenty ~irgins The village plurrl;l€!r, he was there. Came down from inverness He felt an awful fool; And when the ball was over He'd come eleven leagues or more There were four and twenty less. And forgot to bring his tool. The queen was in the parlor, One female music maker Eatin' bread and honey; Was quite a sight to watch._ The king was in the chambermaid, When she opened wide her legs And she was in the money! Sounds came from her crotch. The groom was all excited , Jackie St~art he was there A-racing through the halls, A lookin' for a fuck; A stumblin' on his peeker, But every hole was occupied 1 And trippin' o'er his balls. So he was out of luck. The parson's wife, she was there Mike McMurdock when he got there And she was worst of all; His prick was long and high; She pulled her skirt above her head, But after fucking forty girls And shouted "Fuck it all!" He was fucking mighty dry, The village cripple he was there When the ball was over ' Wasn't up to much. Every one confessed, Lining ladies against the wall They all enjoyed the music And fucked them with his crutch. But the fucking was the best~ C-1 BARE IS THE BROTIJERLESS BACK (Tune: "The Nancy") I sing here of a brotherhood as sharp as any spear, As bright as the Falcon that soars o'er the glorious lands of calontir, As strong as the Lion's heart that roars in the land of the Sable Star, As two great soverign kingdoms side by side in every war. For when there are fair grounds to take, and enemies in the way, 'Tis best to call the Falcons all and the Black Star Banner, hey! And though the foes do fill the field, there's none can bar the way For the Falcon's scream and the Lion's roar will always win the day! CHORUS Vivat the Black Star! Hurrah for calontir and Ansteorra! The Lion and the Falcon stand together o'er the foe! (Pennsic XIII) When called to war out in the East, the Falco;n she did fly, And answered to the Dragon's call, "To war, or else to die!" The Falcon called upon her kin, the Lion of the Star, And side by side they fought and sealed a brotherhood of war. For where there are fair grounds to take and Tygers in the way, 'Tis best to call the Falcon' s \'lall and the Black Star Banner, hey! And though outnumbered six to one, there's none can bar the way For the Falcon's scream and the Lion's roar will always save the day! (Atenveldt War) When calls of war came from the South and reached the Falcon's ears, She flew unto the Lion's aid to face the Aten spears. Down in a ditch, and on a road, and in a field of hay, Thes•' brothers fed Mot.her Atenveldt' s dead to the ravens there that day! For when your homelands are at stake and the Sun stands in the way, 'Tis best to call on the Falcons all, and the Black Star Banner, hey! And though the foes do fill the field, there's none can bar the way For the Falcon's scream and the Lion's roar will always win the day! (Pennsic XIV) More calls of battle from the East, brought us to another war, We fought in the woods, and we fought on the bridges as we had the year before. The best of the Tygers fell to our blows in the bloodiest of the fray, And once again, the Dragon was saved by the Lion and the Tyger that day! For when there are fair grounds to take, and the Tyger's in the way, 'Tis best to call on the Purple Wall and the Black Star Banner, hey! And though outnumbered ten to one, there's none can bar the way For the Falcon's scream and the Lion's roar will always win the day! £-l (Estrella II) Out at Estrella Crescents came to war against the Sun, Here the Lion and the Falcon battled back to back as one.

It served to unite both military and civilian sectors in a time of total war. Annegret Fauser explains that music, “A medium both permeable and malleable was appropriated for numerous war related tasks.”1 When one realizes this principle, it becomes important to understand how music affected individual segments of American society. By examining women’s roles in the performance, dissemination, and consumption of music, this thesis attempts to position music as a tool in perpetuating the patriarchal gender relations in America during World War II.

  • “The Stories Behind the Songs”
    “The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.
