Für die Jüngeren: Ich habe in der Silvesternacht ein Live-Doppelalbum von einer alten Frau namens #InaDeter auf Vinyl gehört. Ein Reim, der mir besonders gefiel, war:

Ich schreib's an jede Wand:
Für Helmut Kohl gibt's Flaschenpfand!

Helmut Kohl war mal Bundeskanzler, als es noch normal war, dass dieser Job von Männern gemacht wird.

Ina Deters erste Band war eine #Skiffle-Band. So fingen auch die Beatles an. Markenzeichen vieler dieser Bands war der selbst gebaute, einsaitige Bass – anscheinend oft auf Besenstiel-Basis.

Das Lied, aus dem die Zeile stammt, entstand lange nach ihrer Skiffle-Zeit: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neue_Männer_braucht_das_Land

"Freight Train" is an American folk song written by #ElizabethCotten in the early 20th century, and popularized during the #AmericanFolkRevival and British #skiffle period of the 1950s and 1960s. By Cotten's own account in the 1985 #BBC series Down Home, she composed "Freight Train" as a teenager (sometime between 1906 and 1912), inspired by the sound of the trains rolling in on the tracks near her home in #NorthCarolina.
