Re. [Dixielandjazz] The Bridge

[PJ Ladd]

<I seems to me that Jada has the AABA structure, is just in 4 bar groups.>

This reminded me that in those far off days when I used to gig around pubs
on guitar( all 4 chords) the words went....

A:  Matches, matches , jada jada jing jing jing
A:  diito
B:  You can strike `em on stone, you can strike `em on glass
I`ve got a sister who can strike `em on her.....elbow
A:Matches, matches, jada  etc

then a tag of `not Swan, Bryant and May`

with the Bryant and May sung in the wellknown fashion of `good evening
friends` with a crashing discord on `friends`

`Swan Vesta`s and Bryant and May were both immensely popular brands of
matches  in the UK at the time.

Simple times, sigh....

Pat
A:  Jada, etc. again
