NPR’s series Present at the Creation talked about overalls this morning. Coincidentally, I wore a new pair to work today. Besides the report and pictures, the site has four songs about overalls, including Bing Crosbys “Who Threw The Overalls In Mrs. Murphy’s Chowder?” You can’t sing that one today: “It’s an Irish trick, that’s true/ I can lick the mick that threw/ overalls in Mrs. Murphy’s chowder.”
