"Gallon o' lye," no? 72.240.64.25 (talk) 21:00, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As opposed to "gamble lie"? Hyacinth (talk) 02:01, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. That's how I've always heard it. She drank coffee and tea, each of which are reasonable beverages, and then followed that up with the more unusual gallon of lye. I have no sources for that, though. 72.240.64.25 (talk) 23:23, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think that the lyrics, about the lion woman, lying woman, are deliberately poly-whatnot and ambiguous. --Timtak (talk) 11:34, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Rory Block made a cover version as well. 85.83.69.232 (talk) 18:38, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Library of Congress Audio

Shame there is no link to the Library of Congress recording instead or at least as well as of a paid CD.--Timtak (talk) 11:34, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
