64. GREEN GROW THE RASHES O Melody--Green Grow the Rushes O Green grow the rashes O, Green grow the rashes O, The sweetest bed I ever had, Was the bellies of the lassies O. We're all full from eating it, We're all dry from drinking it, The parson kissed the fiddler's wife, And couldn't preach for thinking of it. There's a pious lass in town Godly Lizzy Lundy O, She mounts the peak throughout the week, But fingers it on Sunday O. Lizzie is of large dimension, There is not a doubt of it, The soccer team went in last night, And none has yet come out of it. Jockie's wife she thought she'd shave it, Threw him in a pretty passion, Shouting he'd not have a wife, Whose private parts were out of fashion. From Paul Woodford, "Hash Hymns II" (Honolulu, Hawaii, 1994)
