The Roses: They Can't Hurt You

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The saddest thing

in the whole wide world

is to see your baby

with another girl

Tim Buckley
and
Pentangle

and
Jefferson Airplane
and
Donna Summer

all recorded this song

All of them did

an excellent version of

Sally Go 'Round The Roses
***
The roses won't tell your secret
Sally, don't you go
downtown
***

But the gold standard

of this song

is the original recording

by the mysteriously misty

and whiskey-sounding girl group

with the mis-spellable name:

THE JAYNETTS

The birthplace of DJ-verio
is where the Jaynetts
are from:
The Bronx

I take issue
with the statement that
The Jaynetts were
a one-hit wonder
because
they also answered
the question:

Who Stole the Cookie
From the Cookie Jar?
