And other people who were with me knew it too. So we sang it.

They don't write 'em like that any more... thankfully.

Tisanes, infusions, herbal crap tea. Same thing and yes, it is tea, just made with a different plant.

I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Can't no high toned woman make me walk the line
