  • Hello, RayB- Thanks for the thanks.....the words I sing to the chorus are: Foldy-roldy-tildy-tolly-seek-a­-double-use-a-cause-a-roll-o'b­indin.  As such it has no real meaning, but probably started out as a reference to sewing or mending, or quilting? (Roll 'o binding). We used to "bind" the edges of our new quilts just off the frame. Jean

  • It brings a tear to my eye to know that these two are still at it. They've performed a remarkable service in preserving America's musical heritage in the electronic age and turning recent generations onto the joy of musical creativity. Roll, Pete and Jean, Roll.!

  • I love the rhyme for "will you wear orange" that David Grisman and Jerry Garcia used:

    "Orange I won't wear, cause it rhymes, SO THERE!"

    I love Pete and Jean's music; always have, always will.

  • beautiful.

  • The other night, this song got stuck in my head, and as I was drifting to sleep, the rhyme for "Silver" came to me.

    And no. I aint sharing. Find your own rhyme! :)

  • Thank you for fun up-lifting music! What a blessing!

  • @thimoneus I bet this was like old times for them. :)
