The Ring Dang Doo! · 6:21pm Jun 29th, 2020
When I was just a lad you know,
I met a gal from Old Bourdeaux,
She had blonde hair and blue eyes too,
Let me ride on the ring-dang-doo
The ring-dang-doo,
Now, what is that?
It's soft and round like a pussy cat,
Got a hole in the middle and it's split in two,
That's what you call the ring-dang-doo!
She took me down into her cellar,
Said I was a might fine fella,
Fed me wine and whiskey too,
Let me ride on the ring-dang-doo
The ring-dang-doo,
Now, what is that?
It's soft and round like a pussy cat,
Got a hole in the middle and it's split in two,
That's what you call the ring-dang-doo!
Her father came in and angrily said,
''You have lost your maiden head,
Pack your bags and your coat tags too,
Make a living off the ring-dang-doo!'',
The ring-dang-doo,
Now, what is that?
It's soft and round like a pussy cat,
Got a hole in the middle and it's split in two,
That's what you call the ring-dang-doo!
She went on to be a whore,
Hung this sign up on her door:
''A dollar each and three for two,
To take a crack at my ring-dang-doo,''
The ring-dang-doo,
Now, what is that?
It's soft and round like a pussy cat,
Got a hole in the middle and it's split in two,
That's what you call the ring-dang-doo!
This song is so jovial... as it describes someone becoming a sex worker.
I don’t know if the phrase,”Ring Dang Doo” does it, but this sounds like something you’d hear on a Blues or Swing album, I’m fine with that.

Welcome to 1899; life is so hard becoming a sex worker for most women is a horrible reality. (Thinking about how little people knew of infections and STDs like we know today sounds terrifying. I'd rather not think about it...
)
Actually, if you're interested, there is a punk version of this song that I can't stop listening to.

Most of the song is swung though, so I’m gonna say I was half right.
Silly pony! *Boops your snoot*
