Speaker 1 (00:01):
And Amanda jam Nation. So I saw my friend Anita
McGregor on the weekend She's.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Canadian podcast Double a Chattery.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
She does with You, and I thought that put another
log on the fire. I thought it was just an
intrinsically Australian song. I didn't realize that. I guess they're
originally done by an American duo. I think that they
also went, you know, in Canada, it became a big
hit too.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Yeah, back in those days because you didn't have the
connectivity we have now, so you get.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
A local version.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Won't do their version of Bill and Boyd also did
sand It never made it into darn they did.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
But it was funny because when you remembered the song
it was I knew it was satirical, but it was
kind of jaunty and good natured at seemed another log
on the fire.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Cooped Me Up, some baker, some bean, anything where you
got one of those rubber band except.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Wash My Sucks and soul Male Blue Jeans, Come on baby.
Well we were talking about the nature of.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
The lyrics and inviteful the flashbacks.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
No though now you mention it. So the song says, yes,
cook me up some bacon and beans a guide to
the car and change the tire, wash my socks on
mobi jeans, you can fill my pipe, then go fetch
my slippers, Boil me up another cup of tea, Put
another log on the fire, babe, and come and tell
me why you're leaving me.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
It's funny, it's ironic, yeah, but it kind of was.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
But it's something in such a jaunty way that I
kind of missed the next verse here. Now, don't I
let you wash the car on Sunday? Don't I warn
you when you're getting fat? Ain't I gonna take you
fishing with me someday. A man can't love a woman
more than that? And this one completely skipped me. And
ain't I always nice to your kid's sister? Don't I
(01:43):
take her driving every night? So sit her at my feet?
I like it when you're sweet. You know it ain't
feminine to fight. And yes, it was a satirical song,
but wow, those lyrics. Looking back at them, now, I go,
we all just sang along and thought, what a cute song, but.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Now we're seeing along to wop.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah, well, but that's supposedly female empowerment. Those lyrics would
have blown my hair off then and then this is
another song. I love this one by Kenny Rodgers. Don't
take your love to town.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Don't take your love to town.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
You know I love this line here, Well, he says,
it wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war,
but I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Yes, it's true.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
I'm not the man I used to be. Ruby, I
still need some company. This is one of my favorite lines.
It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent
and paralyzed, and the wants and needs of a worn
your age Ruby, I realize. But it won't be long.
I've heard them say until I'm not around. Ruby, don't
take your love to town. And then he says, she's
leaving now because I just heard the slamming of the
(02:53):
door the way I heard it slam one hundred times before.
And here's the kicker, here's the final line.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Back, get my gun and put her on the ground.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
If I could move, I'd get my gun and put
her in the ground. Why doesn't she stay home more?
Because he's lovely.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Someone's got that as a wedding dance.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Because I remember when I was a kid, I got
one of the first Kiss albums was Love.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Gun from We Had Love Gun to Love Gun was
a great album.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
It was there I think sixth studio album, possibly one
of their most successful albums. But one of the tracks
on that, next to the song love Gun was this
one plaster Castle.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I remember this month.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
So this is the story about Cynthia plaster Casta who
was an artist who used to cast men's appendages in.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Plaster after she'd had her way with them.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
No, no, no. This became a thing when she was
at art school.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
A teacher taught her how to make plaster molds, and
she thought, well, here's the way I could go and
meet bands.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
So her probable to hang your umbrella on was Jimmy Hendrix.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
So she didn't necessarily they weren't her lovers. She just
molded them.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I think there was a bit of spade work there.
I think when a woman comes in with the finger.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Plaster, drop your axe, you know you're pretty sure.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
That And so who'd she do?
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Plaster casts of Jimmy Hendrix, Jello Biaffa from the Dead,
Kennedy's Eric Burden from the Animals, famously not Gene Simmons
from Kiss, although he wrote the song about a lot
of people thought it was Gene.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I reckon. Gene would have given it a go. You
just left him with the plaster who had it off
with her. I don't need to be here speaking. That's
where all of a guy.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
I'd have a packet of chips if you could
