Line 41 ⟶ 45:
Yes it goes on and on my friend.
'''Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was
[[Fate Worse Than Death|And they'll continue singing it forever just because...]]'''<br />
This is the song that doesn't end... }}
** Clearly the best musical example of the [[Tethercat Principle]].
Line 47 ⟶ 51:
* The children's song "Ring Around the Rosie" is actually about the millions and millions of people dying during the Black Plague. The posies were lain as burial flowers, and then the bodies of all those who "fell down" were burned into "ashes."
** Most folklorists believe this is incorrect, the apparent plague references are absent in the oldest versions of the song which is itself not very old, the first published versions date to the 1880s with some references to it from the 1850s.
* Folsom Prison Blues has the narrator's crime be that he, "Shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die." Apparently shooting people to watch them die is acceptable entertainment in [[Fridge Logic|every city in the world but Reno.]]
**Either that or it is only legal to [[Fridge Logic|shoot women just to watch them die]] in Reno.
* In ''Tom Dooley'' Tom Dooley stabs a woman someone with a knife and is about to be hanged tomorrow. Tom Dooley complains that if it hadn't had been for the lawman, Grayson he would have been in Tennessee. Apparently Grayson is being grossly intolerant, as [[Fridge Logic|by golly in Tennessee they don't have problems with people who have stabbed women with a knife.]]
* According to ''I Shot the Sheriff'' shooting Sheriffs is hunky-dory but [[Fridge Logic|you better not shoot any Deputies.]]
