I can tell you, however, that for all his clean-cut image, Hank did love a good racy joke, and it doesn't surprise me in the least that he made this record (which was also recorded by Tampa Red). Hank even told an off-color joke at my wedding, but because it was good ol' lovable Hank, he got away with it. I can't reveal the details of the joke; suffice it to say it had to do with garden vegetables, specifically, tomatoes and cucumbers. Use your imagination.
