This song always makes me laugh!

Put another log on the fire.
Cook me up some bacon and some beans.
And go out to the car and change the tyre.
Wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans.
Come on, baby, you can fill my pipe,
And then go fetch my slippers.
And boil me up another pot of tea.
Then put another log on the fire, babe,
And come and tell me why you're leaving me.

Now don't I let you wash the car on Sunday?
Don't I warn you when you're gettin fat?
Ain't I a-gonna take you fishin' with me someday?
Well, a man can't love a woman more than that.
Ain't I always nice to your kid sister?
Don't I take her driving every night?
So, sit here at my feet 'cos I like you when you're sweet,
And you know it ain't feminine to fight.

So, put another log on the fire.
Cook me up some bacon and some beans.
Go out to the car and lift it up and change the tyre.
Wash my socks and sew my old blue jeans.
Come on, baby, you can fill my pipe,
And then go fetch my slippers.
And boil me up another pot of tea.
Then put another log on the fire, babe,
And come and tell me why you're leaving me.

Finally found "Double Indemnity" from the Lux Radio Theater (1950), with Stanwyck and MacMurray. Although it's difficult to translate Noir to the airwaves, I thought that the program was well done, even though it was perfomed six years after the movie. Shame that that Edward G. Robinson didn't reprise his role as MacMurray's boss.

Oh yeah! Doc Watson does that one well, too.

Frankly said there are not that many tunes from the old time/bluegrass repertoire he didn't play at some point. That man is so amazing. ;)

Here's another wonderful song performed by Tony & Ricky, Where The Soul Of Man Never Dies. The vocals are drop dead beautiful. The two of them cut a beautiful album in 1980 simply called Skaggs & Rice. Both songs were taken from that recording.
